Tbf, Swift scored right after GP went off/missed, so it is realistic to say the penalty would've been the 4th
Who's to say there would have been a penalty, had Pucas scored? When he missed, the game restarted with a goal kick by a Cardiff player, had he scored the game would have restarted with a kick off by a Reading player. Therefore, from THAT POINT ONWARDS THE ENTIRE PATTERN OF PLAY for the rest of the match would have been different. This is something fans (me included) don't think about when they say "If we had scored that penalty we would have won." "If their offside goal wasn't allowed, we would have got a point" etc.
You miss the point. We dominated and could have had 4 or 5 goals
The question was simply, "If we'd scored five, what would went be thinking?"
Sorry, Snowball, but I was replying to Hendo's remark. It would not be realistic to say the penalty would have been the forth, because it would never have happened. I get the point that we dominated and could have had 4 or 5 goals, but there again, with the change in the pattern of play they could have scored a lucky goal, against the run of play. Not likely with how we dominated, I know, but as was said, by one of footballs greats "Football's a funny old game".
