       Newcastle v West Ham - Rob Jones

       Var once again proving its not fit for purpose, the 2nd penalty
       if anything is a West Ham free kick challenge from behind misses
       the ball and causes contact.
       1st one in my opinion is offside “The player had time to
       coordinate their body movement, i.e. it was not a case of
       instinctive stretching or jumping, or a movement that achieved
       limited contact/control” he has stuck out a leg after the ball
       has travelled less than the width of his body.
       The red card is defendable until you realise the exact same
       offence went unpunished 2 minutes earlier.

       I'm not sure I would say it is a a foul on Phillips, but it's
       certainly not a move from Gordon that should be awarded with a
       penalty in my opinion, and that applies to the first penalty as
       well. In neither of the incidents he had a real intention of
       going for the ball, he was only trying to win a penalty by
       sticking his leg in between the defender and the ball.
       Unfortunately, by the current rules and interpretation, this
       isn't really even being considered.
       For the first penalty the offside is obviously also a discussion
       worth having. For me, there are considerations to support both
       deliberate and no deliberate play in this situation, I don't
       think it was clear and obvious for VAR to intervene in either
       case.

       Like I say first one my opinion is offside can definitely agree
       var saying too subjective stay with the decision on the field
       just seen the replay so not sure what the on field decision was.
       I think this is a great description of the 2nd one “What David
       Coote (VAR) is saying is that if he’s walking down the street
       and I stick my leg in the way of him, he’s kicked me. ”

       Its an absolutely nailed on penalty.  Gordon got in front of
       Phillips who took an almighty swing at his standing leg.  It was
       almost identical to the first penalty where Gordon got in front
       of Coufal, but with a lot more force in the kick.  Completely
       accidental by Phillips, but that doesn't mean it wasn't a foul
       and penalty.

       So impeding a player with the ball is not a foul now? If we are
       saying just sticking your leg in between the player in
       possession and the ball is a foul then we can never penalise
       someone who trips from in front, like the quote I said from
       earlier if I stick my leg in front of you mid step and you make
       contact with my leg have I tripped you or have you kicked me?
       Your interpretation says the latter

       There's no impeding here.  Gordon has every right to move his
       foot towards the ball, which is what he did, Phillips has then
       carelessly kicked him.  If Gordon had moved away from the ball
       to affect Phillips's ability to play then ball I would agree
       with you, but he didn't.

       Gordon is facing away from the ball with his leg across, let's
       say an attacker knocks the ball past an attacker who sticks his
       leg out but gets it on the ground in front is that a foul on the
       striker for kicking the foot on the ground or the defender?
       Let's be consistent and penalise an attacker who is tripped by a
       defender with the leg in front then

       I genuinely have no idea what you are talking about.  Gordon
       didn't trip anyone, he had his foot on the floor and then
       Phillips just kicked straight through it.

       I have several so called commenters say this is not a penalty
       kick. It is a stonewall penalty kick. Kicked on the back of the
       ankle.

       Ok so just ignore the ball attempt to cause contact but ensure
       your toe is on the floor 1 frame before the contact even while
       you’re still moving to play the player and then it’s a foul on
       your favour, if that’s in the other box it’s a West Ham penalty
       no debate. Great use of var
       In fact villa just got given a free kick for a similar incident
       stepped across the player nowhere near the ball villa player
       running and there was contact with the villa leg in a forward
       motion free kick no complaints, var is useless, clear and
       obvious changes day to day
