Everton 2-0 Nottingham Forest
PREMIER LEAGUE · MW34 · 21 Apr 2024 · REF: A. TAYLOR
The argument
Ashley Young handball claim in the box — penalty not given
The panel ruled
The panel backed the referee — but narrowly.
No penalty — on-field call correct
Narrow · 3-22 of 5 panellists disagreed
“a very subjective call. Young's arm is out and blocks a cross but the ball hits from close proximity; the arm was in a justifiable position.”
