Wolves vs Bournemouth

Attached a link here as this wasn't live at the time.

Peter Bankes with 3 spot on penalty calls (albeit 1 with VAR intervening).

Start of the video onwards for no. 1

1:28 onwards for no. 2

2:30 onwards for no. 3

All awarded to Bournemouth, and personally I thought they were all the correct decisions. He also turned down 2 appeals from Wolves in the 1st half, that aren't shown here. He definitely got 1 of them right, but I can't find footage of the other one anywhere so I couldn't say. What do others think on the 3 shown here?

For a bit of comedy value as well, things were getting desperate before Bournemouth took the 3rd pen. See if you can spot the guy behind the goal and his unusual efforts 😂

Think all 3 are pretty straightforward though never easy to give 2 never mind 3 to the away team.

Shame he doesn't give the 2nd live, looked like he knew something wasn't right.

Made harder by the fact he then (correctly) waved away 2 appeals from the home team within about 5 minutes of each other. He got all the major decisions right (even if VAR had to help on one) so fair play to him.
