Indeed. Usually among the biggest guys on the pitch, can jump, barge and use their hands. Yet just look at that Everton disallowed goal for all the evidence you need.

The ball had been kicked out...
Same old story, United always given the decisions at home, hard not to see how it's not corrupt now VAR is in place.
But the VAR officials are holed up in a quiet room. There’s no crowd pressure. There are a group of them.
It’s not bowing to pressure. It’s a conscious decision to give the three points to UTD.
Seriously think that’s the most bent decision I’ve ever seen from VAR.
Vicario did the same late in the game vs Brentford.
Well, I know what the jobsworths are going to say: The ball was long gone and his actions didn't have a "direct" effect on the play. Bullshit in my eyes. We all know that gets given 100% the other way around.
It's not 'the same' he didn't even touch the Brentford player - he jumped over Vicario and the ball was long gone.
He's just cleaned him out completely. You shouldn't be able to do that just because you play in goal.
People will scream "corruption" and shit but imo this is just an example of that. Refs protect them all of the time, you can clatter anyone on the field as a keeper and it doesn't matter. I remember when Pickford got away with smashing VVD, it was brutal.
And the Wolves headed the ball as well before he was run into by Onana
what's the difference between them? both goalkeepers didnt get the ball and barrelled into the player
Brentford players momentum took him into Vicario
Ref didn't see the contact, only the dive. VAR saw the contact.
Once there is contact, it's a pen, no matter how dramatic. I don't like it any more than you but the player is moving away from the goal. As a defender you give him a yard to make sure he doesn't do you on the touchline and force him to turn back out so that you're back line are in position.
We were taught this at U13 level.
Hit up the replay. Vicario definitely touched the brentford player.
Can't even go the first weekend without a VAR shitshow
Well the ball was dead...am I telling you something new?
Come on . Vicario's momentum caused the contact just as much. It was very similar to today's incident
Both balls went absolutely nowhere before the contact.....am i telling you something hew here ?
