Its a pen

If he is getting nowhere near the ball it hasnt affected the play and therefore should be treated as an off the ball incident so no pen.
He is being impeded before the ball is played and the the ball passes the vacinity of where he was
He puts him in a headlock. In what world is it not a penalty?
Looked like a clear pen to me.
The Ashley Young one was the most obvious penalty you will see. Stone waller all day.
The referee in the Brentford v Brighton game got called over to the monitor but didn't overturn his decision.
Has this happened before in the Premier League?

A couple, but only the second time it's happened this season I think.
It's a shame because now obviously he's embarrassed his mate in the VAR booth by going against him and everyone is pointing and laughing.... Or you know, everyone is just fine with the right decision being made and nobody cares about refs enough to feel embarrassment for them.
It seems like VAR will much rather overturn a non-penalty than a penalty. That one was so soft.
If that was the other way the Liverpool media and Klopp would be up in arms.Operation "Klopp's fairytale ending" evident for all to see here.
This ref is tragic.
Does this ref have his cards with him tonight at all?
Damning indictment of the PL that the best foreign ref they could find was this clueless wanker from the other side of the planet.
Clear fecking dive. Backing the ref and bottling a decision
You can’t make this up. Done once again by referees. Where is our club with any sort of statement?
That looked a blatant dive.
Never a pen
TNT sport on the premier league payroll to gaslighting us in to thinking that was a stonewaller? Was a clear fecking dive.
That was as obvious a dive as it gets. Wtf is the point of VAR??
I would not give that as a pen, he seemed to keep his balance if he even got touched by Dalot. Fall was very theatrical.
It's okay, we'll get an apology in the morning.
Two dives missed by VAR.
The first one was already soft. This one had literally zero contact.
For pen decisions VAR is just 'my mate on the field is right', whether he is or not.

The margin of what you physically can do in the box is literally not existing.
2 complete dive penalties tonight
Both penalties though.
Antony's knee on the first, and Dalot trips him on the second.
You can tell be Dalot's reaction it was a penalty
Coote is fecking incompetent.
Bent cnuts. Added time a joke and dying to give two pens.
I thought it looked a definite pen in real time and Madueke’s tumble didn’t look easy to fake. Dalot was also very guilty-looking. I think slow-motion is deceiving us again.
First one was soft as hell.
First one was soft as hell.
Replay shows there's no contact, he takes a step forward and collapses to the pitch
Remember the Rashford one where he was subtly clipped, think it was v Southampton? Everyone called it a dive.
Refs are so inconsistent, it’s beyond a joke.

Dalot looks guilty because the referee points at the spot and gives the penalty, so you instantly know you're fecked.
Both dives
VAR was introduced to eliminate cheating such as that second dive. I don't understand how they didn't overturn or recommend reviews of both penalties.
Those are never pens.
People in here keep saying « weak » when our players are literally being barged off the ball but any contact in our box and it’s a pen and our players are stupid.
We got fecked by the ref tonight and there’s no way around it
