Credit to the Wolves playing for not going down. Most players would have and I can see why they do in an incident like that.It was a penalty in the last minute soft or not. There was contact. The poor decision for me was not sending Vinicius off. If the Wolves player had pretended to be injured it would have been a nailed on red. It rewards playacting.
What they need to do is to punish the diving , rolling around and clutching a part of their body that hasn't been touched.
If we didn't have extensive TV coverage with every incident being shown in slow motion from different angles, we wouldn't be able to question decisions. We're stuck with the TV coverage but I would like to see it being used to punish blatant cheating - retrospectively as games last long enough as it is.
