Erik ten hag has broken his silence about the decision of the video assistance referee (VAR) to not award a penalty to Manchester United. This latest news comes as a complete surprise
In a strange turn of events, the Belgian player’s boot struck his opponent’s chest in the visitors’ box during the second half, earning him a get-out-of-jail card.
The German told Sky Sports, “It’s a penalty for all football people on the planet.” “He can only hit the ball because his foot is right there,” the 56-year-old continued.
Indeed, they do say, “Hit the ball.” However, the foot has nothing to do with it because he kills him if the ball is absent.
Strangely, after watching the situation, VAR decided not to intervene or request that the official on the field investigate more.
Regarding Doku’s challenge to Mac Allister, Jurgen Klopp was spot on. It’s amazing how much mental acrobatics Sky Sports employees are already doing to justify the decision in issue.
For the love of God, be sincere! It was a fine. It would still have been a penalty if it had been the other way around! Our manager’s ability to maintain composure in the face of witnessing his side being robbed in broad daylight is impressive, but hey ho! We continue, sitting second in the table behind league leaders Arsenal on goal differential.
Above all, there’s still plenty of the season to challenge for the championship!
