Was that a pen? Looked like Colback pulled out of the challenge to me, wasn't sure he'd actually made any contact. Toffolo shouldn't of tried to hurdle it really.

VAR time!

Think that was the right call. Clearly looking for the pen, a little contact but he was already going over

Quite clearly a dive. Ironically if he didn't dive so theatrically, there was more of a chance of a (soft) penalty being given.

One of the clearest pens i have seen in a long time and VAR did nothing.

Will yous all calm down? Clear dive! clear pen! It was a close call/difficult decision. There was a leg stuck out but he made the most of it.

Are you guys blind? The attacker was doing his best Slippy G starfish impression.

How are those saying it’s not a pen, justifying that? I’ve seen it again now and there’s clear contact between defender and attacker?
As others have said there wasn't enough contact for the theatrical fall. Could have easily planted his right foot, but decided to starfish instead

Super clear contact. How someone can argue that's not a penalty is insane. Text book example of what a penalty looks like.

I’m pleased that wasn’t given. The Huddersfield lad was starfished and airborne even before contact was made. Moss will get stick, but they’re horrible ones to call.

It’s not even that it’s clear contact, he got completely tripped over.
