As Newcastle fan, i don't feel aggrieved one bit. Here's why:
-
It's group of death. It was expected to be difficult. We smashed them at SJP and like it or not, PSG was expected to win the group. As things stand now, they have to beat Dortmund away to surely progress, which I doubt Dortmund will particularly like considering that will drop them to 2nd position.
-
We still have good chance to go thru and can guarantee EL with a win over Milan. It will be tricky, but we can do it. If we win and PSG doesn't, we'll go thru in CL! Check out our lineup, not so long ago some of these players were relegation fodder! We weren't even expected to come out of this group given how inexperienced our players are on European stage, we were in 4th pot for the draw, so to be in position where we can still advance is amazing!

Let's put ourselves in PSG position. They were expected to win the group or at least qualify with ease. If this penalty was not given for us as underdogs at SJP, we would be mad.
So, it was really unlucky for Tino, but these things sometimes happen. Ball did hit his elbow, there's no doubt about it. With deflections now not being counted, it's refs decision to give a penalty. Fine. We'll learn and next season maybe be in 3rd pot, step by step we'll get there.
P.s.
We should've played better, but can't be unhappy, with injuries we have it's still amazing result and we're still in with a chance.
One thing is certain, it'll come before Elder Scrolls 6.
