Agreed, strength and will to succeed marks out the killer strikers. Penalty or not he should have scored

But it only takes a slight touch to tap your trailing foot just behind the front leg, and then you have no foot to put down. It was the heavy touch that was more of the issue really.

No, fair enough - but it looked a penalty in real time to me as well. If it had been given by the ref, VAR wouldn't have overturned it.

I think maybe that's the crux of the matter - it wasn't a bad enough mistake to be overturned by VAR. On the whole I think that's a positive - and it's an absolute must for close off-side decisions!

Amazing shot by Trossard. Then 1 min later has a man over on his right, heavy touch and loses it. What an opportunity. He could be another level but suppose that's why he's with us!
