This Southampton reversed penalty vs Leeds was a dramatic incident in which Andre Marriner originally pointed to the spot after Nathan Tella had gone down following a clash with Diego Llorente. Marriner originally thought it to be a Llorente foul on Tella, but VAR disallowed the penalty.
Tella Llorente incident | Tella dive against Leeds? | Southampton disallowed penalty reversed VAR
Later in the game, a superb tackle from Oriol Romeu on Raphinha prevented Leeds from scoring a goal.
If that’s not a Southampton penalty, why doesn’t Tella get a yellow card there for diving?
Totally agree, should have been given a yellow card at least, or if you really want to cut diving out a” RED” card.
Once the referee was requested to review the incident on VAR, if it wasn’t a foul it was deliberately cheating.
Referee’s are having such a “Torrid” time at the moment trying to do their job’s under such intense pressure. During lockdown with no fans was the ideal time to support referee’s to the hilt and get everyone on board with the” lawful” rules..
I also believe players and managers would be much happier if they knew cheating would not be accepted.
Sorry for the rant, did you just see that pig flying through the sky.
