MONDAY CUP FINAL! (A match thread)

We're just starting to lose our composure here.

Probably add Murillo to the list of season ended.

Long old VAR check for the penalty, lots of subs. 8 minutes is on the high side but not outrageous.

We do limp to the end of games at the moment.

I'm naive and hoping he'll be ok for Sunday. He's form for it.

Surprised Goodman didn’t want Milenkovic sent off for a headbutt.

I don't understand the penalty run up rule now. Surely that should have been disallowed?

As for the game, we looked dead on our feet for the last 20. It's not a bad point in the end.

It seems Morato and Nketiah were carded 90+13, so 8 for us and 3 for them.
6 of ours after the equaliser.

They’re also a quick, physical side. Exactly the sort of team we’ve struggled against this season (Newcastle, Fulham). Definitely a decent point tonight, especially with a ref who got increasingly erratic as the game went on.

I thought it was a fascinating game with a decent level of skill on show from both sides. Eze and Wharton are terrific for them.

Nothing I saw tonight changed my view that Palace v Forest would have been a barn-burner of a cup final - sell-out, electric atmosphere, two sides for whom it meant a lot. Neutrals have been robbed here. Fucking City.

Donald Goodman was raving about Wharton, but i thought Anderson was better than him tonight.
