BBC Sport anti Newcastle United bias and pro Manchester United is laughable nufc
It is a bit of a running joke now, as to how BBC Sport cover Newcastle United.
The home side did get the ball in the net twice in as many minutes after half-time but in both instances, Ronaldo’s effort was ruled out.Ronaldo and his team-mates argued Fabian Schar had rolled a free-kick back to Pope and therefore the ball was in play. Pope did not move as Ronaldo closed in, suggesting he thought the kick was still to be taken.
The thing is, what the media choose to talk about in the direct aftermath of a football match, then pretty much dictates what is debated in the following days / weeks. Bottom line, it doesn’t matter what else has happened in that game, it is what the media choose to focus on, which is then repeated by other media time after time and fed to the masses.
If this had been say Callum Wilson doing the same at the other end, never in a million years would it be talked about afterwards as a ‘goal’ that should have potentially stood. Instead he would be simply ridiculed for attempted childlike cheating. The referee wasn’t great overall but on this incident he played it exactly right, booking Ronaldo and treating what had happened with the contempt it deserved.
In the entire summary of the match from Simon Stone for BBC Sport, there is not even a single mention of the Varane / Wilson penalty incident. Honestly, you couldn’t make it up.
