       Just finshed watching MOTD, what are peoples thoughts on the Two
       penalties incidents? For me there both same and not
       penalties.Ball hasn't travelled that far and Hit Joel Wards arm
       both times which was by his side and in a natural position for
       me. One Pen given the other not.

       Were Palace complaining when they got awarded a similar penalty
       (player's arm away from his body) by VAR intervention at Old
       Trafford last week?

       Jonathan Liew with some great writing in the Guardian match
       report on that:
       “Around 10 minutes later, Lucas Digne tried to head the ball
       into the path of Richarlison, only for the ball to flick Ward’s
       hand on its way through. Play continued. Palace had an attack.
       Everton won the ball back. Autumn turned to winter.
       Joe Biden won the presidential election. Random parts of
       Greenland continued to melt into the Arctic Ocean. Ward retired
       and grew old. Humanity itself finally perished in the second
       great conflagration. At which point Kevin Friend brought play
       back, studied the video screen and awarded Everton a penalty.
       Richarlison, by now a wizened, shrivelled stack of bones and
       rags, tucked it into the top corner.”

       Yes Roy Hodgson was quite sincere about it last week saying it
       wasn’t a penalty. Same as this one today. Feel sorry for friend
       because he has correctly waved it away.
       Not a penalty for me and lawmakers are ruining football!!

       The thing which makes it worse for me is the consistency aspect
       because I'm struggling to differentiate between the two
       incidents. I can't say I feel sorry for Friend because like
       Taylor he has had a second look at it on the monitor and still
       thaught it was a penalty.

       I think that’s part of the problem jackinthebox. It’s great,
       IMO, to see referees using the monitors more frequently, but
       when will we see a referee brave enough to disagree with VAR?
       It’s almost like if you view the monitor you must change your
       decision!

       or perhaps referees are only being encouraged to view the
       monitor when it is believed they will recognise their initial
       decision is incorrect.

       Either way, it must be tricky, even for a referee of Kevin
       Friend's experience, when someone recognised as one of the top
       referees in Europe suggests that there is a possible doubt about
       a decision.

       The VAR is only meant to recommend an on-field review if they
       believe an error has been made though so if the process works
       correctly the referee should change their decision the vast
       majority of the time.
       I think the PGMO would consider the decision to give a penalty
       in this game to be correct.

       I totally agree Mackem ref there is an air of inevitability that
       when the ref goes to the monitor the orginal decison is going to
       be over turned.
