On Saturday, "Everton" lost with a minimal score of 0:1 to the "Manchester City" team, but after the match, there was no shortage of discussions on social media about the 11-meter penalty not given to "City" at the end of the match. As the meeting was approaching the end, "Man City" goalkeeper Rodri played with his hand in the penalty area, but neither match referee Paul Tierney nor VAR referee Chris Kavanagh noticed it. After the match, disappointment was not hidden by "Everton" manager Frank Lampard, who stated that even his three-year-old daughter could easily say that a penalty should have been awarded. It seems that the mistake was also acknowledged by the English Football Referees' Association (PGMOL). According to the BBC, PGMOL director Mike Riley personally called both F. Lampard and "Everton" chairman Bill Kenwright on Monday to apologize for the incident.
