MOTD did not show it in slo-mo or from any other angles. I watched the match on a stream where they did show it from several angles, and he definitely stuck his leg out across Wilf's thigh to send him off balance, from which he stumbled and went down. Bang on penalty according to both commentators and the 2 studio guys.

I've made my view clear about the Zaha incident.

And NO I dont share the view that Madley is "Incompetent" and "Inept".
And Yes the penalty he did award us was totally justified and he was well positioned to see the contact.

Bobby the inept t*** Madley even told Wilf there was contact, but apparently not enough to warrant a penalty for a full speed Zaha. What a f***ing joke, on the halfway line the coward gives it 11 times out of 10. There was no more contact on Andros, but by now Madley knew he was an incompetent prick and tried to even things out. As usual you will never have me agreeing with you and your ridiculous defence of the indefensible.
Basically the real reason he bottled a big decision is cos he knew Fonte was the last man.

zaha fell far to easily dangermouse, i absolutly worship the ground zaha walks on but he does it quite a lot, its not just him, theres losds of players who do it, they try to manipulate set peices/pens by making the most of challenges. unfortunatly refs now are trained to see it.

sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt, thank f*** it worked against watford in the play off final.

and it didnt matter if fonte was the last man, havnt the rules changed, you cant give a penalty & a red anymore?
