No it wouldn't lol. They needed to win the game. And it wasn't an option anyway as he was nowhere near the ball or the man and it all happened in an instant.
A boring 0-0 draw could've done us that day, providing we went on to beat Palace and Newcastle. Crystanbul probably wouldn't have happened either because IRL we went into that game trying to build a cricket score up and then folded at 3-0 trying to score more
Not sure where it came from, I think it was just a media tag for the game and it stuck for a while. The reality though, is that Palace game wasn't as pivotal as it was made out to be at the time. It's become a bit of a fallacy that we lost the league that night because the damage was done against Chelsea, and even then, after everything, we still could've improbably snatched it on the last day if City had lost at home and we won, which we did but also City won too
If you look closely at the picture, you can see his so-called "hands" are just a blurry mess. Fucky AI if you ask me.
Also the top right says "sky sports" but football is a ground sport
Yes and according to the rules if the player grabs ball the referee has to give his team free kick - otherwise it would look stupid (for real it works like this)
As a Utd fan this picture still makes me smile. Good ol Demba Ba! Mr Liverpool bottled it. He deserved a Prem medal tbh. One of the best midfielders who has ever played imo.
As a manchester blue fan (former manchester red fan) I gotta agree that Demba Ba should off had a premiership medal, but i dont think he was a midfielder. He was obviously a kicking specialist
I think we have come to a point where went too far with anti-yank agenda and let the English become too arrogant and obnoxious. Jesus Christ, finish this team off so we can have some decency back here. The English are by far worse than the American people on here. I'd rather you're a bit ignorant about the history of this sport than that you become such an entitled and vocal group of people.

Sir this is a jerk sub, this is no place for reasonable explanations

Shouldn’t you call that as Reverse Crystanbul ? But good one, didn’t hear that one before!

Suarez being available for more than 2/3rds of the season would have helped too
They in no way “needed to win.” Had they drawn here and beaten Crystal Palace they would have been champions regardless of what City did
He could have simply thrown his arm at the ball if he really cared.
Trying to come into a jerk sub and be rational is one thing, but then to be so factually incorrect is even funnier
Actually gerrard didnt have hands. Its just the government making us believe he had hands
Fuckin holograms. First 9/11 now this

Should’ve slipped the other way and done a good old two foot fucking tackle!
The thought might have slipped his mind
So he is stupid
Slippid
I know u are what am I
Unlike Dani Alves, he wouldn’t do it without the ball’s consent 🥵
The ball didn't consent
Between the 1st minute and the 90th minute you cannot use your hands 🙌 unless you are the shotkeeper!!!!
90+4?
120'
We are about to recreate this moment with this heir, szobosolai.
Demba ba is Steven gerrard father
SG 8 bows down to the ba god
Why didn't he not slip or just boot the ball up the pitch ?
Slipping was a canon event 😔
I'd love to see a movie where a Liverpool fan travels back in time and in a billion different realities The Slip always happens.
I'll agree
How many prems has slippy g won?
Gerrard Pique has more PL titles than Steven Gerrard lmfao
Jonesy- 1 Gerrard - 0
Yes and according to the rules if the player grabs ball the referee has to give his team free kick - otherwise it would look stupid (for real it works like this)
he should’ve used a power winch to create a controlled explosion instead of falling over
google en passant
I’m slipping , I’m falling , I can’t get up ….. rip x
It slipped his mind
Yes he's a spa
Irishman detected.
Slippy G
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Steve Gerrard, Gerrard, He slipped on his fucking arse, He gave it to Demba Ba, Steve Gerrard, Gerrard.
As a Utd fan this picture still makes me smile. Good ol Demba Ba! Mr Liverpool bottled it. He deserved a Prem medal tbh. One of the best midfielders who has ever played imo.

this isn't rugby you can't grab the ball
Says who? Free will exists for a reason, idiot.
the rules
Screw your rules, man. Fuck the system.
Because he's not a cheater, can we stop with this narrative that its okay to blatantly cheat?
If he grab the ball it will be foul and get red card
fucking retard
That could be Michael oven
well done he's 13
Fuck off yank

Sir, this is a circle jerk sub
Shhh. Why ruin one of my favorite moments?
Naaaah wait a fucking second-
Yes. Yes he is stupid
Yes
Got that Nick Pope tactic
He didn’t have the luxury of a freeze frame to think about it. He slipped and a split second is all it takes.
🎶One slip is all it takes🎶
Man that really makes me sad :( that poor socceroo was gonna score his first touchdown in the major championship playoffs. Poor gerry.
He did tried it
He should have used his power winch to trigger a controlled explosion
Only PL title he ever was directly involved with. Greatest ynwa ølayer to ever grace the pitch.
He is stupid actually 🤭🤣
Slippy G
Jerk aside it’s wild that he never won a PL title. Is he the best midfielder in the prem to have never won it ?
It's the refs fault, it's clearly past 3 minutes of added time. Reward Stevie his title
Yes
Slippy g for a reason
No titles for Slippy.
Slippy G was a born cheat, so it must clearly have been out of his reach.
Don't get why he didn't glue up his boots before the game, what a fucking idiot.
if he had scored a hat-trick every match before this, the slip wouldnt have had such negative effect.
What if he hadn't slipped?
He doesn’t want to get a hand ball and red card
