Obvious penalty error shows we need replays

BIG matches are all about key moments and the one in this game came in stoppage time when Nacho Monreal clearly handled the ball when under pressure from Jesus Navas. It looked obvious and given its position on the pitch, I would have expected one of the match officials to have seen the offence and award City a penalty. Referee Andre Marriner was seen to say, ‘Not for me’ when approached by City midfielder Fernandinho, which would

suggest he saw the incident. If that’s the case, then it makes it all the more surprising a penalty wasn’t given. Video replays can’t come quickly enough.
