ROMERO HANDBALL VS MAN UNITED: VAR denied man utd a penalty against Tottenham
Fans of Manchester United found themselves split in their opinions after a critical match moment. The incident occurred when Manchester United faced Tottenham Hotspur, and it revolved around a penalty decision. The incident took place 25 minutes into the game when Alejandro Garnacho attempted a shot, only for it to be blocked by the hand of Tottenham Hotspur’s defender, Cristian Romero.
Following this, there was a lengthy and contentious deliberation by the Video Assistant Referee (VAR), who reviewed the play. Ultimately, the match referee decided not to award a penalty and allowed the game to continue.
Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville shared his perspective on the situation during his commentary on Sky Sports. He remarked, “Both of Cristian Romero’s arms were raised, and the key question is whether his right arm was close enough to his body to warrant a penalty.”
Subsequent to this controversial penalty incident, the match gained newfound intensity as both teams had numerous opportunities to score the opening goal.

Shocking official decision, this had to be shown & talked about more!
Shocking referee. Michael Oliver is a joke
And they say Man Utd pay off all the refs 😂
What are they going to say now?
Its even now since Wolves didn't get one either against United.
its VARRUPTION
If this was reversed then the media would criticize us again but when its united who is the victim i haven't seen any post about the incident
Of course the distance was close but the defender can not have his hand up there. The shot was right on goal. Otherwise defenders could always just keep their hands on shoulder hight and „block“ shots from close distance, that can‘t be. If he was sliding and his hand was on the ground while sliding and makes a contact then with the ball from close distance then ok. But on that height it is a clear pen!
Its 1000% penalty!!
Now they know how Wolves felt on Monday night 🤣 Look at them losing their rag over that penalty call 😏
yeah it is a penalty, but then again Manchester United should not have to rely on a penalty
they are in disarray
no need to whine over a not given penalty
and top 4?
right now they are just not good enough
just pure corrupt ref
Wait, this really wasnt given !? WTF
Stonewall penalty. Liverpool fan
This is a disgrace
defo handball from a liverpool fan
I was watching it live and when the VAR check was being done it clearly didn’t look like penalty but on regular camera it was a clear penalty so I’m thinking maybe it was that reason they didn’t give the penalty.
It is a penalty 10000000000000%
PGMOL and JON MOSS still keep quiet and do not APOLOGY yet to UNITED 🤣🤣
Michael Oliver officially relieved of duty by FA. Possible transfer to league 2.
