I thought it was a very harsh decision.
Kelly trying to turn his back on him, so arms are in a natural
position, blasted from about 2 yards away.
If thats a penalty, then attackers may as well just blast the
ball at the defender and hope to get the decision.
However, credit to Oliver for not listening to VAR and sticking
with his own decision after viewing it again. (even if I think
it was wrong)

He has turned into it so I disagree that it is harsh but this is
why this site is good with so many contrasting decisions

In terms of natural justice this was not the right outcome.
However, the game is governed by its Laws; not natural justice.
As DG said on "Ref Watch" it is now expected that this type of
handball "offence" is penalised and Michael Oliver has
reasserted that after the OFR.
