I'll reluctantly go for a City win by 2 goals. Would love to see Palace win, underdogs and all.
Very attacking front 6 for City - no real bite in their midfield. Wonder if Palace could crowd them out in the middle? [Post edited 17 May 15:38]

So both BBC and ITV pundits think Hendo lucky not so see red. Also both think the pen was wrong.
VAR managed to get both wrong then... |
I really don't get the Hendo one.
He's in the box and swats the ball away no? |  |

The Henderson incident is not a good for the conspiracy theorists who say only the top clubs get the calls. |
You'd think it would be red for the first one if that was the case.
Just strikes me as incompetence but big clubs attack more and therefore get more chances and flash points. |  |

Hands and ball were out of the box. It's not the position of the feet, it's the position of the ball. |  |

Palace need to get hold of the ball. City will create something eventually with this amount of possession. | |

I think they need a second goal regardless. City will get one, and I think Palace need to be 2-0 up by that point. | |

Certainly should be. But who knows? | | | |

Offside and goal line has proper tech now.
Everything is still a guess. | |

Either way, great awareness and discipline by the offside Palace players not to even try and go for the rebound. | |

Poses an interesting question, though:
How would it have been treated if he'd swiped at the ball inside the area, but (purely owing to the physics) the ball didn't cease contact with the glove until after it had left the area? | |

If the ball is in contact with the hand outside the area, it's handball, even if the contact between hand and ball started in the area. |  |

If its handled outside the area, its an offence. | | | |

2nd time this match De Bruyne's put a pretty dirty challenge in to stop Palace advancing and barely gets a telling off for it. | |

A shout-out for the Palace keeper’s cap . (Is a goalkeeper’s cap the last thing in football that can have no branding (club/sponsor/manufacturer) on it? Maybe his has, I haven’t checked it out that closely, so maybe his has))
Follow-up question , which Town keeper do you most associate with a cap? ( |  | | |

Perhaps an unpopular opinion but I don't think much of man city's youngsters. All look a bit meek and tip-tappy. | |
