"Referee Mark Clattenburg gave Liverpool a shocking penalty for Paul Underwood's apparent foul on Gerrard, but justice was done as Beresford dived to his right to save Cisse's 12-yard effort. Three minutes later, Nicholls showed Cisse how it should be done, stroking home after Carson had brought down Vine in the box - the keeper lucky to only receive a yellow card."

Why was Liverpool's penalty a "Shocking" penalty? Underwood did shove Gerrard and that was a foul and therefore a penalty.

Carson didn't bring Vine down in the box as the camera angles proved it and it was mentioned in the studio that Vine stamped on Carson and the foul should have been the other way around with no penalty given.

I used the "contact form" on the bbc website to mention this - they changed it to;

"Referee Mark Clattenburg gave Liverpool a penalty for Paul Underwood's foul on Gerrard, but Beresford dived to his right to save Cisse's 12-yard effort.

I think more of us should complain when there are clear cases of bias.
