TOUGHEST PITCH CONDITIONS! - Whitehawk vs Hashtag United - 24/25 EP19

[@Hashtageddycooper]

Obviously we aren’t in line & we haven’t got an exact camera angle, but that 2nd goal looks onside watching it back! I think we might have been too nice there Spen 🤣

[@markfreshwater2550]

We were right next to it was a yard on

[@mhgooner9546]

Refs were terrible. The corner before the penalty the ball is way off the corner spot. Plus the 2nd goal wasn't offside.

[@elzet3894]

Not saying they weren’t terrible but no one cares about the corner thing. I do this all the time when taking corners, simply because it’s hilarious how spectators cry and complain. Never has a ref even bothered to look at it.

[@KD-rd5ln]

Ref couldn’t get close to play to actually make a decision. Watching it back he is always 20/25 yards away from the ball. Just horrific

[@itsthegoofy1]

For a Centre back that’s only 20 years old, Apat has been playing ahead of his years - most underrated signing this year imo 👏🏼

[@caaaders1]

Really like Mert Apat recently if he can get his speed up a little bit he’ll be a great defensive asset

[@itsthegoofy1]

6:22 in real life he’s actually quite quick, I think he just looks slow on camera because of his size

[@itsmylife2314]

@@itsthegoofy1 maybe he´s addressing more his agility rather then pure speed. Masallah, with being 6´6 it´s not quite easy to be agile and being able to quickly switch directions. Tbf, brother mert is being decent in that aspect ofc it´d be better for him if he can improve that. Otherwise on the mental and technical attributes he´s above average in this league´s standards imo

[@Elvendertig1130]

6:22 For those saying Apat is slow and doesn't use his height to an advantage.

[@Yo_keebs]

How is this pitch legal😂

[@jasonwilson2226]

This is luxury compared to most Sunday league pitches 🤣

[@robnumberthree6232]

​@@jasonwilson2226 This is far from Sunday league though and even still, I'd question the state of this pitch for Sunday league 😂

You literally play in mud at times during it​@robnumberthree6232

[@Fr4serd]

Mert Apat is very solid. You’ve got some player there.

[@WilsonsWanderings]

That 2nd goal looked definitely onside! Unlucky Tags, one of those games where your dominance doesn’t pay off. Big appreciations for Apat though, he’s had some big defensive shoes to fill in terms of Haysome and he’s been doing well! 🤙🏻👍🏻

[@truechaosmulala3831]

I mean seems to me more like the ref made some wonky decisions

[@JoePlatt1]

3:58 I don't think the ball is touching the quadrant but I might be wrong...

😂😂

And still doesnt get it beyond the first post...

The osude run 😂 0:31

[@jimfrank135]

Hashtag played well, but they defended superbly tbh.

[@salttalksftbl8002]

Two games in a row some dodgy refs

[@OxidizeTunes]

mert looking quite solid recently, great find devs!

[@user-ps7rr1no6n]

Horrible pitch. Horrible Ref. Misha is an Ox.

[@craigbroadbent680]

That pitch for step 3 is an absolute disgrace not even half way through the season 🤣🤣

[@asahumphreys1861]

That’s a disgrace of a pitch in step 3 football.

[@bestintheworld568]

Think the penalty decision was correct. He’s jumped, turned his back and his arm is out and has blocked the ball entering the penalty area. Handball is handball.

[@Hashtageddycooper]

Yeah ngl watching it back I agree. Originally felt really harsh, but I think when your arm is that high up it makes the ref’s decision a lot easier!

[@bestintheworld568]

@ Yeah, he’s a young lad and he’ll learn as time goes by. Just needs to keep arms tucked to his ribs and stand his ground a bit more. Might mean taking one in the mush every now and again, unfortunately 😂

[@eldan_reign4778]

mert has to play ahead of kuba in the future, much more solid and much more comfortable defensively when he is on the pitch

[@D34671]

6:32 loool Eddy is hilarious

[@hankshepherd2310]

He was onside. Also that pitch was pathetic, what a joke. Well played Tags

[@raymondoakford8357]

You ain’t got to be watching the ball to concede a pen, if your arms are out and it strikes them then that’s a spot kick.

[@hdq14]

Stood up with my soup in hand and applauded this misha performance. Soups everywhere now but another class game from a special player

[@Themidanchor]

Merry Christmas to all the tags and fans

[@fishstar2974]

Always good to see ellis' name

[@HobbenTroutski]

Dodgy showing from the ref, so with that taken into account plus the tough conditions against a side with a new manager bounce, i think 1-1 is a very solid result for the tags. We’ll take that

[@Rj_D956]

Fairplay, solid performance overall and a point is still a point. Cmon boys! UP THE TAGS

[@leonbanks5728]

Was at the game. It was a good point in the end for Hashtag. The conditions were terrible.

[@TimedTech]

That pitch 😳 you can tell it evens the playing field

[@magictrades159]

very hard to win games in those conditions. It's a bit of a leveller in terms of ability. So just don't lose the game and move on to the next one

[@redwheelbarrow9729]

“Turned away, not looking at the ball”. Has his arm raised, hits arm. Blatant pen.

[@Kid222]

solid result, the conditions were one of the worst i have seen

[@RGTout95]

In those conditions that’s a very good point! Conditions that matched the standard of the refereeing….

Timestamp for the offside goal?

[@BaldyMcflyyy]

is this pitch really on a hill or are my eye just bugging?

[@TheJoshBusts]

Alex Bolovan, an ACTUAL CM, not getting the start over a non-CM player is crazy. Devs’s gonna lose another one for meat riding Matty so hard

[@harryroche7787]

Pretty much every clip after he came on was him misplacing a pass or giving possession away

[@ballacksrfc729]

The officials have had an absolute stinker.

[@TyTheOwl]

People still unfamiliar with the handball rule it seems😅😅

[@michaelhills1063]

Harsh but a pen. One thing I was taught growing up is never turn your back in the ball!!

[@thomasmason8481]

That pitch would be questionable at a Sunday league level

Can Hashtag get promoted to National league next season 🤔

[@CEOMF]

Good Game.. we should have won this tho. Let’s go Tags

[@eduardoceron4636]

The refs on this level have been so bad this season.

[@spiritofthebooze]

would we have been allowed in the league with a pitch like that?? Great point all things considering

[@sclark1768]

Nailed on pen

[@meeraaudio]

Mish is so strong

[@ChrisScoi]

I 100% believe that the league has to step in and get involved when there is pitches being used of that awful quality in a league below the national north/south... that's not right, my local Sunday league teams play on better pitches.

[@naprimjer6593]

This is the kind of pitch people get injured on.

[@MANapier7]

The penalty is a penalty for me, I won’t complain about it. Deservedly a goal in first half with the attacking chances but no way it’s offside for the disallowed goal, that camera angle looks onside to me. The pitch getting worse minute by minute, my god. Great performances to everyone, I felt (based on the highlights) we should get 3pts but a point away from home on terrible pitch is better than nothing. Bring on Boxing Day! 🥊 Merry Christmas Hashtag Utd! 🎄

Honestly worst ground I’ve seen how’s this worse than some Sunday league pitches

[@conorcourt8401]

Horrendous referee on a massive power trip! And the pitch might be even worse

[@MultiMazdo]

Sorry but this ref was actually rediculous, not to mention the linesman, I'm never one to say something like this but that ref felt like he had a bet on. I honestly cannot see anymore he can do to try to get his hand out of the way for the pen, I'm not saying he couldn't give it, but it's very light imo. I see that happening a multiple times a week, and our second goal, unless Misha was offside, which if thats the case the linesman flagged SUPER late, then noone else was offside. They were so physical with us, yet barely any fouls and barely any yellow cards, don't mean to talk about poor officiating the whole comment, but when a ref wants to make it all about themselves thats what happens. Anyway we played well, just unfortunate and definitely should have won, we go again! Up the Tags #💛💙

[@BaldyMcflyyy]

easy handball call on then pen. you cant be jumping and turning your back like that. you are taught that at a young age especially sticking your arm out like that. unlucky

[@cambolio1872]

I think people saying the referee was awful need to take the tinted glasses off. Seems like he got a few decisions wrong but I wouldn’t say anything that majorly influenced the game. He gets the penalty absolutely spot on. It’s cowardly from the hashtag player to turn his back like that, and have his hands in the air out from his body. Also, there’s not one person here that can say the offside goal was onside with the angles we were given.

[@bradstanners4558]
