Pulls his arm then pushes him in the same movement it’s clearly a foul. Anywhere else on the pitch it’s a clear free kick.
It’s obvious he didn’t want to give two penalties to the same side.

Two handed shove in the chest/shoulder as Amad dribbles past, it’s just so obvious. It was clear in real time, it’s clear in slow mo
The ref fucking bottled it, utter coward
lestat85 on
You can see the ref staring at it, weighing up how it looks to give United two penalties, shitting himself and then turning to catch up with the play that’s moved on. Cowardice.

The foul look worse on each replay
Idk how you don’t give that

Disgraceful. How can this be incompetence? It happened right in front of him? I cannot think of any reason other than bias/corruption

The Amad foul was way worse than what Maguire did. Make it make sense
Embarrassed_Wave_720 on
Can the club do something about this at all as in maybe lodge a complaint?
Forgettable39 on
If I try to be as generous as possible, there is a view at around 1:00/1:01 where, from the referee’s perspective it might look like a minor contact which Amad made the most of, which might have caused him to hesitate and think “im not sure, I’ll let it go and VAR can decide”.
I think this is still a bad thing though, VAR fucking with referees decision making just by existing. Obviously, refs made mistakes all the time even before VAR but they were at least, usually, an honest assesment by the ref in the moment and they are human so obviously, mistakes happen.
With it like it is currently though, referees relying on VAR and then VAR cocking up major decisions every week, is unsustainable. This is a stone wall free kick anywhere else on the pitch, the same referee didn’t hesitate to ***YELLOW CARD*** Casemiro for the ***same offence*** but ***less*** contact and ***less*** impedement of the player, at around 25ish minutes. So this ref already demonstrated he believes this type of contact is not only a foul but a bookable offence, in the very same game. This is why I come to the conclusion that the ref chickened out of the decision, knowing VAR would check. The trouble is that VAR then doesn’t want to ever make their old mate look bad on the pitch so disproportionately side with the on field decision… which wasn’t a decision at all, because the ref just left it for VAR.

It looks like he was about to give it as well. What the hell was he thinking?

Actually diabolical in the context of it being given the other way (and conceding straight afterward).

This Atwell guy also costed us 3 points in the Burnley game. Moreover, I don’t know why he gave Bouth 9 additional minutes, this guy wanted us to lose so badly and blatantly. I think we can escalate and remove Maguire red card and nothing more. English ref is definitely the embodiment of corrpution

Ban this ref.

That is as obvious of a penalty as I’ve ever seen, ffs.

If that was me I wouldn’t have the audacity to celebrate that goal. I’d go touch the ref feet to show him my gratefulness for being gifted the goal.

If one of our players just fouled a Bournemouth player we would’ve got the pen. The fact they scored from the same play was the key reason they didn’t award a pen on Amad, sad state of football but reality of todays game
young_dumb_broke_1 on
Fuck Stuart Atwell.
cesc8305 on
Why not award the penalty and let VAR verify it anyways? Ref clearly didnt have the nerves.
andrewlikereddit on
We should appeal maguire red card by using the argument that the amad one wasn’t enough to be a foul and thus his foul isn’t either.
Nanibackflip on
If United didnt already get a pen it 100000% would be given, refs are cowards now.

PGMOL is a joke. This game should be replayed from that moment.

The biggest issue here is VAR looked at the Maguire contact and upheld the red card and pen AFTER seeing the Amad contact which was so similar and gave nothing.
It feels intentional.

Shithouse.
He’s either incompetent, or corrupt, or a combination of both. The fact Bournemouth score within 20 seconds of the non-award is the cherry on top of a very shitty cake

If it happened anywhere but the box he gives it. He chickened out.

Honestly I think prem refs think they are orchestrators of entertainment not simple enforcers of the rules.

Prem referees have too much power. It is scary
Jamie during the post match said this was soft and the one by Evanilson was a pen and straight red with a straight face.
Tube_Warmer on
I just dont know how you dont give that? Two hands on the chest, push/pull, and doesnt even try and play the ball. Look at his feet. Hes not making any attempt to kick the ball, he is 100% focused on Amad. This was BY FAR a better case for a pen that Maguires( which was also a pen and a red).
ScottOld on
OK, not enough contact for a penalty
So they accept there is contact, therefore a foul
They score a goal
The goal should be disallowed because there is a foul in the buildup and a penalty given… schrodingers penalty
If this was outside, VAR would watch it, see the foul on amad, overturn the goal, and give a free kick.
And also have to overturn the maguire one because there isn’t enough contact either
PuzzleheadedBed4874 on
Unbelievably bad refereeing. Cost us the game after a positive but not perfect performance.
ReasonPlastic6327 on
Absolutely no where near playing the ball. This is criminal. I wonder what fans can do if there’s no accountability
Whatisthiscalled2 on
I firmly believe if they don’t score in that same sequence they go back and give that pen. They simply didn’t want to deal with taking their goal away to give a pen and swing the game to the 2-0 score line it should have been. Complete bullshit and cost us much deserved points.
SinisterMrSinister on
That bellend Craig Pawson was on VAR this was 100% him not wanting to potentially take a Bournemouth goal off to gives us a penalty. It was 25 seconds between Amad being fouled and the goal. No way it was properly looked at in that time.
One-Feedback678 on
Everyone stops. They all thought it was a pen. That Bournemouth player then quickly realised no whistle and took advantage. Not only is it a missed pen, the goal feels like a direct consequence of everyone thinking it is.
This is one of the worst misses I’ve seen in a while.
