Other issue is why was the penalty given to England last night, they had video review and I am still wondering how that could qualify as a malicious foul. I suppose it's the same rule with hands on ball, intentional or not doesn't seem to matter. A penalty doesn't require malice, only an offence inside the penalty area that would otherwise qualify for a direct free kick. If the ref had thought it was malicious, he would have been reaching for his card pocket as well. Once the ref has made a subjective decision, VAR will only change the outcome if there has been a clear and obvious error by the referee.
