Whatโ€™s the point with this anymore. That is a clear penalty. Pope didnโ€™t even protest as far as I could see #NEWARS

When Arsenal scraped past Port Vale on their way to winning the Double Arsenal were the best team in the country in 1998 but needed a replay and penalties to beat second-tier Port Vale
