Only saw the brief highlights on MOTD2.

Yet again, so much mass dissent. Obviously not particular to Madley, but definitely getting worse. Players sprinting aggressively, from distance to contest decisions, including (stupidly) ones which will automatically be checked anyway by VAR.

Thought Grealish simulated a foul for the RC - played the ball away and jumped into the defender (actually stamping on defender’s foot). Not sure what a defender is supposed to do in that scenario. Not exaggerating an actual foul, just inventing one. Easier with replay, but often think Grealish’s antics are obvious at normal speed - notice international refs have recently been on to him, often waving play on.
