Precisely what VAR OUGHT to be dealing with.
But given how it has been operated against us at times, there is a degree of karma about it. |  |

We look immediately much better since the pen and it's only been a couple of minutes! This is more like us. | | | |

I think it's one where technically there is contact which has caused him to go down. As such it is, by the rules, a penalty and they have left it at that.
Ouattara clearly steps across to initiate the contact and then goes down very theatrically. I was a bit surprised VAR didn't review it but very pleased too. |  |

Agreed, not a pen for me. |  | | |

I think it might be inconsequential in the end anyway so it’s not likely to be looked at. |  |

That analysis is precisely the problem. Nowhere in the laws is "contact" the decider for a penalty.
It was actually little different in principle to the Fatawu incident. Put his leg across where an opponent was about to land, with no interest in the ball at all. | |

Ridiculous penalty, if anything it was a foul by Outtara. | | | |
