Not all about the pass from Barnes, its all about the pass before that from Woltemade. His link up play is fantastic and if we can play off him in the box we will score tons. #nufc

Yeah but we dont really want balance. We just want them to get the calls right. If they got both decisions right, we would be defending a 1-0 lead with 5 minutes to go down to 10 men. That would have been preferable. I dont blame the ref tbh, I blame VAR blindly backing their mate. #nufc
