That happens almost every game and is never called. How is that being called in this game? Honestly how does PGMOL support VAR doing that in this game and not for example when Gabriel was actually tackled in the box against Newcastle last season!

    If you’ve got the video from behind the goal… watch how the 2 man city players are blocking and grabbing man utd defenders from getting back.

    If one is a penalty for the attacking team, why is that not a free kick to the defending team

    The rules are not different for attackers and defenders.

    This pen was no more than putting a guy off his run. I’ve been an avid fan for 30 years now and this is the softest penalty I can recall. Even the halftime commentary was very soft on the penalty.

    Not that city wouldn’t have beaten the pants off United today either way but come on, they didn’t need help.

    The refereeing this season has honestly started to make me not interested in watching anymore. The amount of inconsistency is just unbelievable.

    That literally happens in every single corner… how can it be a “clear and obvious error”? And I’m a Liverpool fan…

    He was dragged down in the box instead of getting a free header, it’s a fair call. Just be consistent about it. Jesus got assaulted the same way
