Everton Denied Penalty Against Manchester City After Rodri Handball Goes Unpunished Following VAR Review

Fans were staggered to see Everton denied a late penalty against Manchester City after Rodri appeared to handle the ball inside the area.

Not long after City had finally broken the deadlock through Phil Foden, Rodri committed a huge error under no pressure when he miscontrolled a simple ball.

The ball appeared to bounce up against the Spaniard's arm and the incident was referred to VAR.

But the check was over fairly quick, with Stockley Park ultimately deciding against awarding a penalty and referee Paul Tierney not going to the screen.

The decision caused a huge stir, with Liverpool fans also furious as the call could be crucial in the close title race.

City moved back to six points clear at the top of the table, with Liverpool not in league action this weekend due to playing the Carabao Cup final against Chelsea.
