A atitude de Jorge Andrade

Amigo Nélson,

Eu sempre confiei mais na minha memória do que na dos outros, sobretudo quando assisti aos acontecimentos que recordo, por isso, em vez de ficares por páginas em que pessoas que recordam vagamente e sem grandes factos os tais acontecimentos, deverias procurar mais "fundo"... digo eu.

Ainda assim, tal acontecimento só mostra que realmente não adianta muito pedir o quer que seja aos árbitros (mesmo sabendo que já vi alguns voltar com a "palavra" atrás). Já agora o que queiram?? Que o Deco saísse do campo em solidariedade?? LOL

Fica aqui com o texto retirado do site do Liverpool, e de seguida o link:

«The game's defining moment came on 66 minutes when Fowler went to the ground after being dispossessed by Seaman. He immediately sprang to his feet to wave that no foul had been committed, but referee Gerald Ashby continued to point to the spot.
   
Fowler took the kick himself and it was an almost apologetic effort that was easily pushed away by Seaman. However, this didn't stop Jason McAteer from pouncing to lash the ball home and virtually end Arsenal's title hopes.»

Já agora fica o texto todo sobre o jogo:

«Ahead of Liverpool's Good Friday clash with Arsenal at Highbury we recall the drama that surrounded the corresponding fixture of seven years ago.
24th March 1997: Arsenal 1 Liverpool 2

Seven years ago Liverpool beat Arsenal at Highbury in a scintillating clash to keep our title hopes alive. This game is best remembered for Robbie Fowler's honesty as he tried to dissuade the referee from giving a penalty, even if it could have cost us all three points.
   
The Reds and Arsenal both trailed Manchester United by six points in the title race, but we had a game in hand and a superior goal difference over the Gunners. Stan Collymore was recalled to our starting line-up after four games on the bench, while Ian Wright returned to the home side after suspension.
   
Both sides cancelled each other out in the first half, with Arsenal disrupting our passing rhythm to enjoy a lot of possession themselves. But they were unable to convert this into chances and Bergkamp's frustration got the better of him when he was booked for diving on the edge of the box after a good run. At the other end, the best chance fell to Collymore, but Adams and Keown did well to block his shot after he had moved menacingly into the area.
   
In the second half the Reds upped the pressure and were rewarded after just five minutes, when Collymore slotted the ball home after Seaman had failed to hold on to Stig Bjornebye's shot. From then on we took control, as Arsenal's young midfield failed to cope with the craft of McManaman, Barnes and Redknapp.
   
The game's defining moment came on 66 minutes when Fowler went to the ground after being dispossessed by Seaman. He immediately sprang to his feet to wave that no foul had been committed, but referee Gerald Ashby continued to point to the spot.
   
Fowler took the kick himself and it was an almost apologetic effort that was easily pushed away by Seaman. However, this didn't stop Jason McAteer from pouncing to lash the ball home and virtually end Arsenal's title hopes.
   
Eleven minutes from time Wright did give Arsenal a lifeline when he clipped the ball over David James after a Bergkamp flick on, but a solid Reds defence soaked up the remaining pressure. There was one heart stopping moment in injury time when Wright went down in the box but Ashby waved play on, meaning he was widely booed as he left the pitch at the end.
   
The win lifted us to three points behind United, with both teams having seven games left to play. But an end of season collapse saw the Reds finish in fourth, missing out on a Champions League spot on the last day of the season. Fowler's fair play didn't go unnoticed, however, and when he was given a special award by FIFA in the summer.
   
Liverpool: James, Kvarme, McAteer, Wright, McManaman, Collymore, Fowler (Thomas), Barnes, Redknapp, Harkness, Bjornebye.
   
Arsenal: Seaman, Dixon (Parlour), Winterburn, Viera, Adams, Platt, Wright, Bergkamp, Keown, Marshall (Garde), Hughes (Shaw).
