Are they PL refs?

If he doesn’t make an absolute hash of the dramatical foul I think it’s given, it just so simulated because of his reaction.

Ukraine likes to complain alot but to the surprise of no one

It’s both a foul(there’s contact) and a dive (the effect is exaggerated).

That makes it a judgement call.

Those are the facts.

Here’s my opinion: if it’s in the other box, pen. That’s how UEFA roll.

The Italian Job, #robbed

100% pen - Arteta would be furious if that happened to his team.

Silly Italians. Mudryk skies all his good chances. No need to foul the guy

even my wife shouted “ that’s a pen “. Such a criminal decision

The first angle it looks 100% like a pen but then all the other angles make you wonder how his legs could explode in the other direction like that without diving.

Even if the ref somehow missed it, I can’t imagine VAR managed to check it properly in such short amount of time. Looked like the play resumed within like 10 seconds. There just wasn’t enough time to tell the ref that they are checking something, see it in slowmotion in a few angles and then report back that “nah, we didn’t see anything wrong”.

Not even a check? A peek? A little lookey-loo? Nothing?!

This should have at least gone to VAR.

Unclear from the replay that the defender didn’t get the ball first
