Fulham Vs Portsmouth | O'Hara penalty claim
Description of incident: O'Hara was attempting to control a bouncing ball just inside the Fulham penalty area. Danny Murphy came in with a fairly high, out-stretched leg and O'Hara went tumbling. The ref was unimpressed and allowed play to continue.
Date of Game: Wednesday 6th February 2010
Home Team: Fulham | Away Team: Portsmouth
Referee: Anthony Taylor | Linesman: Mick McDonough & Phil Sharp
Decision Type: Penalty | Verdict: | Decision Difficulty: 1/5
Affect on Result: N/A | Winner: Fulham | Loser: Portsmouth
Players Involved: Jamie O'Hara (Porstmouth) & Danny Murphy (Fulham)
Summary: Although Murphy's challenge was relatively high, he was attempting to control a bouncing ball. O'Hara went crashing down all of his own accord. I don't think it was a dive but there wasn't any contact between the two players so no penalty was the right decision by the referee.
Cheers,
