I don't particularly have anything against him, but I really hope that he concedes while celebrating a save one of these days.

Yet again VAR reminds me why I wouldn’t be arsed if we do go down!

I don't think things like that should be a penalty but from what penalties have been given for this season and in the modern game, it is a penalty.

That looked like a stonewall pen? That and the handball are clear and obvious errors. Can't understand it.

This could easily be the most shocking piece of refereeing I have seen this season :)

Ashley Young would probably get away with murder today.

Disgraceful refereeing.

3 stonewall penalties all missed by the referee and VAR
Wouldn't say stonewall which is probably why they've not been given. Ones where if the ref calls it then it stays a pen, if not then it stays a non-pen.

They are always stonewall unless your team got away with it.

Clear kick on Reyna ? Young has his hand out - that is a penalty - and then Young tackles into the leg of the Wolves-striker - all clear penalties to me

I think the last one is stonewall. Just seemed to take him out from behind.

First one I'm not sure on, second one is one of those handballs - definitely not a penalty based on the semi final yesterday anyway.

I imagine the referee in the VAR room thought they weren't clear and obvious/too soft to change the decision. I don't disagree that they were pens.

I’m the same - first one no - the second - I’ve seen them given so 50/50 but the last one absolutely is a pen.
