Thought this was a very harsh penalty. Two players accidently clashing heads, really can't see how Kerkez is the guilty party, and at full speed even more puzzling?

I can see why it was given, the Palace gets there first and heads the ball before any contact with Kerkez. I suspect Tony Harrington thought there was more movement towards Osario by Kerkez than there actually was, whereas for me it was more of a coming together. There's no doubt Osario headed the ball first, so I don't really see that VAR could have said it was clearly and obviously wrong.
