I'm assuming the ref gave the penalty for what he thought was a trip? Surely after they see he's taken the ball they can't go back to the outside of the box pull. Now if the ref initially gave a the pen for perceived shirt pull I could understand

That’s exactly what happened. But it’s Man Utd at Old Trafford. They’ve just made up a new use for VAR on the spot that has never been utilised before.

 

That’s if you even judged the tiniest shirt grab to be a foul too.

I'm glad someone else has seen it this way, I thought I missed something or that I didn't understand the rules properly. Free kicks are rarely given for that little contact.

 

I'd love to to be hear the official reasoning no doubt they'll make some bull shit up
