On the set of Sky Sports on Monday night, Gary Neville and Karen Carney agreed that Wolves should have been a penalty.
"The reason I think it was a penalty is because Onana wasn't near the ball," Neville said. "He's always at the bottom, never gets there and can make a decision before he jumps.
“I always said that if my goalkeeper went out he had to make a lot of saves, he did, so in a way he did what I wanted my goalkeeper to do, but the problem is he's not near the ball.
“He decided to block as much as he could and push the striker away, and it was a penalty because he wasn't close enough to the ball. Advertisement
"If he came in at the same time and missed the ball, it would be a different story, but I think he knows what he's doing."
Meanwhile, Jamie Carragher has a different view. "I wasn't sure when I first saw it," he said.
"Until it's been awarded, I don't think there's ever been a way to reverse the game. Once the referee didn't give it, I don't think it was a big enough mistake on their part. to reverse it.
