       Correct ofr for the Chelsea pen decision. Poor from kavanagh
       there.
       He should also have given a yellow to George like he did amad a
       few mins later.
       Good apart from that

       Didn’t see the George penalty incident but sounds like he
       should’ve been cautioned for simulation looking at what’s been
       said on BBC live text.
       Correct call to book Amad for simulation though, no contact and
       just goes down. Good to see that some simulation has been
       penalised. There was an also an act of simulation punished in
       the L2 playoff tonight as well with Ben Toner correctly
       cautioning the attacker

       I guess VAR decided to focus on Onana playing the ball because
       it was an ”easier” decision, however I agree that George
       should've been booked for simulation. Maybe an area for
       improvement, but VAR still did what it was brought in to do:
       prevent clear and obvious errors in KMIs

       Didn’t look like a penalty in real time.
       Correct decision to overturn. Not sure it was a dive.
       Surprised the two footed tackle in injury time did not result in
       a red card for Heaven. Shocking tackle.

       Rubbish. Gusto actually went in with both feet off the ground.

       What I saw in the second half thought he was poor. Very
       inconsistent decisions, resulting in niggly fouls. He let enzo
       run the game and he was in his ear for every decision. Terrible
       decision in penalty bailed out by VAR.
       Not his best game

       I thought Kavanagh was ok at best in first half but cards were
       inconsistent throughout and as ajb95 pointed out not a great
       second half by Kav

       Firstly George should have been cautioned for simulation as Amad
       quite correctly was.
       Secondly the Heaven challenge was never worthy of a Red Card.
       Incidentally, did I miss the memo saying it was acceptable to
       surround officials without sanction?
       Chelsea were at it from first whistle to last, although many
       other team's players have been equally guilty of it
