Watching the game, notwithstanding VAR I thought the penalty given to Leicester was an awful decision. Five minutes later a stonewall penalty, in my view, wasn't given.

Now I know referees are not meant to even up bad decisions but it's amazing how often it does seem to happen.

Didn't see any of that match, but you'd think that a referee compensating for a dodgy decision ought to be something that VAR should make less likely.

Watching it in work in Spain. Clear penalty to Leicester. It hit Mings on his blue sleeve (ie arm) preventing going to a Leicester player (Vardy I think.) Villa’s shirts helped because his shoulder was claret. Didn’t see the incident 5 minutes later as I was working.

That's interesting. I thought it hit his shoulder. That maybe is the problem with VAR, at the end of the day all decisions are subjective.

Clearly hit the shoulder imo, terrible decision.

Clear and obvious error?

Doesn’t seem to matter, as much as I don’t like them Man Utd were denied a clear penalty against City and Fred was booked for diving. This was massively a clear and obvious error from the referee but was not overturned.
