What a weird call. As a neutral that’s absolutely terrible, why even have VAR when that’s the outcome.

    First viewing- clear penalty.

    Every single replay after that made it more and more clear it shouldn’t be. Was really surprised when it was given. Yellow card for diving for the Newcastle player would have been a fairer outcome

      I agree (not about the dive) But this is why it’s not a clear and obvious error, we saw it and thought “pen”, so did the ref. Because there was contact and it looked like it could have been a pen. VAR can’t overturn thst.
