Not only did the handball decision seem harsh, but once given surely that has to be a red card for DOGSO?

Not even a booking. Don’t know how they arrived at that conclusionI don’t seem to fully understand VAR down south. Hopefully if we get it up here it works better than what it works just now.
Thats not a hand ball to me, if it is given its got to be at least a yellow surely?
Better refs than you and I disagreeI'm sorry, is the game now run by robots scared of using their own common sense to please men in grey suits with clip boards....On no level is that hand ball, its not even close!!!
Mended that for you, by definition, if they give that as hand ball, they're not any better than the rest of us......Betterrefs other than you and I disagree

I can see why MO gave it, his arm move is definitely towards the ball as well (not that it touched it) so it would/could have deceived him and as we all know, he only gets one view of it! VAR should have got that right thoughDifferent angles and different stories. The referee view angle which comes into the vid later on makes it look like it might’ve been his bicep rather than shoulder.
You don't think a top premier league striker is 'likely' to gain possession there? I think so. However, it really doesn't scream DOGSO and there is no expectation. But I think Vardy is 'likely' to gain possession.This is where VAR has a major problem, not with the technology or the people using it, but rather the guidelines and terminology. What exactly is a clear and obvious error? Every replay angle shows it hit the shoulder and not arm, so I just don't get how VAR can say it wasn't a clear and obvious error. He's given a penalty when it should have been play on, that is both clear and obvious to pretty much everyone watching it. Same in the Liverpool game, Gomez was very clearly and very obviously pushed in the back, yet VAR say they can't get involved. It really is a mess.
However, whatever the actual decision, I really don't see how it can be DOGSO. There's no control, there's absolutely no guarantee or control, and there's way too much to be done for DOGSO. I didn't even see any Leicester players appealing for a sending off, including Vardy who would have been the one with the chance.
