In a tense match at Goodison Park, Everton's 2-2 draw with Manchester United was marked by a controversial late penalty decision. Manager David Moyes expressed surprise at the VAR overturn of a penalty awarded for a foul by Harry Maguire on Ashley Young. He believed the initial decision was correct and highlighted the confusion around VAR interventions. Conversely, United's manager, Amorim, felt the cancelation was justified, characterizing it as a soft penalty. The match illustrated ongoing debates around VAR's impact on officiating in football.
I've had a look at it, and [Maguire] undoubtedly pulls his jersey. I thought the on-field decision looked the correct decision. I was a bit surprised.
I think it was a soft touch from what I saw. I think it was a soft penalty, it was clear. The worst part is that we are losing the ball without pressure.
