| 68:48 | Olivier Giroud (Arsenal) | Ross Barkley (Everton) | Barkley was in control of the ball when Giroud tried tackle to him and mistimed tackle tripping Barkley to the ground. The referee correctly awarded a foul.
But then the referee also gave Giroud a yellow card. The following list below show’s that the foul was not worthy of the yellow card.
1. This was Giroud’s first foul of the match. 2. Giroud’s tackle was not reckless, because the contact made was of a normal mistimed tackle. 3. Giroud did not stopped any promising attack by Everton, because it was an open ball in the field. 4. Giroud did not committed any tactical foul by deliberate interference.

| 71:06 | Laurent Koscienly (Arsenal) | Romelu Lukaku (Everton) | Lukaku was running on the right wing on the counter attack when Koscienly came in late sliding with studs up and slightly came in contact with Lukaku. This slowed down Lukaku, but Lukaku did not fall down and kept attacking. The referee correctly played the advantage.
But this tackle was reckless by Koscienly and it also slowed down Everton’s counter attack. This should have been a yellow card against Koscienly. But the referee did not give it. Cautions for Unsporting Behaviour There are different circumstances when a player must be cautioned for unsporting behaviour, e.g. if a player: • Commits in a reckless manner one of the seven offences that incur a direct free kick • Commits a foul for the tactical purpose of interfering with or breaking up a promising attack • Holds an opponent for the tactical purpose of pulling the opponent away from the ball or preventing the opponent from getting to the ball CORRECT ADVANTAGE PLAYED FOR EVERTON.

| 76:32 | Santi Cazorla (Arsenal) | Ross Barkley (Everton) | Cazorla and Barkley were looking to reach for the ball inside the Everton’s half. Barkley reached first but at the same time Cazorla cleanly tackled ball away first from Barkley with his right leg. After having the ball being tackled away Barkley lost his balance and fell down. This should not have been a foul because Cazorla cleanly tackled the ball first. But the referee gave foul against Arsenal.
WRONG FOUL AGAINST ARSENAL. |
-1 (FOUL) | |
| 76:56 | Nacho Monreal (Arsenal) | Gerard Deulofeu (Everton) | Deulofeu and Monreal were running after the ball inside the Arsenal’s half. Deulofeu got to the ball first and Monreal at the same time tried to run from behind of Deulofeu in to the penalty box for defensive work. Suddenly Deulofeu lost his balance and went down to the ground after hobbling for a few times. There no foul contact by Monreal on Deulofeu. This should not have been a foul but the referee gave a foul.
Also as there was no foul contact by Monreal, it was an act of simulation by Deulofeu for the second time this match. He should have been given a second yellow card and sent off, but was not.
LAW 12 FOULS AND MISCONDUCT PAGE 125 Cautions for Unsporting Behaviour There are different circumstances when a player must be cautioned for unsporting behaviour, e.g. if a player: • Attempts to deceive the referee by feigning injury or pretending to have been fouled (simulation)

The visit of Lee Mason and Everton at the same time is something that has been dangerous in the past. You never know what will happen with him and he was in the picture a few years ago when Dogface wrote a pre-match ref review that even got us to the BBC.
It looked that Mason didn’t have his best day. And by saying this I don’t mean that he made a mess of it against Arsenal. No, both teams had to suffer from a few errors. More than a few in fact.
Giving fouls where no foul was made, giving nothing when fouls were made. It all was a mix up from start to finish. And both assistants didn’t give him much help either. Or at least one didn’t.
After a few wrong calls he then gave Coquelin a yellow card for a foul that wasn’t as bad as it looked. Coquelin tried to block a possible deep ball but got turned by the Everton player and then the Everton player was brought down more by the head of Coquelin who was on the floor. He couldn’t cut it off, couldn’t he? Lennong on the other had deliberately stepped in the way of Alexis in order to block him off the ball. The card stayed in the pocket and so happened with Delofeu who didn’t get a card when he dived in to the ground after having passed Monreal. Mason saw the dive and waved play on but if he player dives in order to gain an advantage it is called cheating and should get a yellow card. No matter where this is happening on the field. A dive is cheating and is a yellow card.
The first half score was only 63.1% and if we put weight on it he got a score of 64.2%. Imagine if there wouldn’t have been 3 valid goals… then it would be below the 50% mark.
In the second half we saw a light yellow card for Giroud but then when Koscielny made a late tackle that missed Lukaku and the ref played an advantage he didn’t pull out the yellow card when the ball was out of play. Koscielny should have been booked for that tackle. Like I said it was not all and everything against Arsenal.
Again lots of mistakes and also a few in favour of Arsenal. A few offside decisions going our way from which we almost scored a third goal. We took note of this.
Arsenal should have gotten a penalty when Mirallas first pulled Bellerin on the arm when the young Spanjard went past him in the penalty area and then pushed him in the back. Bellerin tried too long to stay on his feet and gave Mason the chance to give nothing when he finally went down. But a foul is a foul and it should have been given. In that phase he made a complete mess of it as the ball ran to an Everton player who kicked the ball in to a corner and then the ref gave a goal kick. That completely wrong.
The score in the second half was 63.3% and when we put weight on it, it goes down to 53.8%.
The final score over the whole match was 63.2% and with weight it went down to 58.2%.
But credit where it is due: the bias numbers were one of the lowest I can remember from this season. Only 72% of the wrong decisions went against Arsenal. That is what they call in my mother language being happy with a dead sparrow…. But hey getting closer to the 50% bias score as it should be. I wonder if this will keep on going in that direction in the next reviews…
Anniversaries
9 November 1907: The first ever London derby in the first division ended Chelsea 2 Woolwich Arsenal 1, in front of 65,000 – the largest crowd Woolwich Arsenal had appeared in front of.
9 November 1925: William Harper joined from Hibs for £4000 – a world record fee for a keeper. He only stayed for a couple of seasons before going to the USA, but then did return for a second stint as Chapman continuede his endless quest to find the perfect keeper.
Thanks again for these reviews, Usama and Walter. Glad to see all the annotations about mistakes in favour of Arsenal, which should help reassure the people who accuse you of overt partiality and selective blindness (if only…).
We questioned the appointment as it didn’t really make sense, and this performance from Mason proves it. The man was under pressure, and even though these are typical PIGMOB representatives figures, this shows it.
Off topic
Been hearing comments such as Tottenham players were disappointed not to take all 3 points bla bla bla, from various media sources…., certainly not from the match I watched. How many times did we see their players waste time? Several times. They’d kick the ball away after each whistle, took ages with their goal kicks. throw ins, etc, exactly the opposite to what Arsenal were doing (even in his haste Flamini even threw the ball into touch in the 92nd minute, while trying to find Giroud, and Tottenham took about 30 seconds to take the resultant throw in). Does that sound like a team that was disappointed with a draw, clearly wasting time like that? I don’t recall hearing the crowd whistling to Cech to take his goal kick quick.
We had 55% possession to their 45%, and were even on shots on target, but they’re supposed to have battered us. Battered us with 45% possession?? Wonder what those that work in the media take us for….
Are you guys passing this on to the club? I will tell them if you want.Brilliant analysis as ever.
Thanks lads.
Excellent job, lads.
A slight wind of change in the air? Nah, more of a breeze but still an improvement.
PGMO – only place where moving from being biased to just incompetent means improvement.
“Only 72% of the wrong decisions went against Arsenal”.
That tickled me. Excellent report once again. Thanks.
Another excellent & very detailed report – very much appreciate the effort and time you guys put into this.
Mason really is incompetent & made many basic mistakes – and while his bias was “only” 72% – an improvement compared to most of his colleagues, he still tilted the field against Arsenal & made the win much more difficult.
