For those saying that Aston Villa were robbed because Lammens impeded Suzuki before the equalizer, I think you're overlooking an important detail. Lammens did make contact with Suzuki, but the referee and VAR reviewed the incident and decided that the contact was not enough to disallow the goal. A former Premier League referee, Andy Davies, explained that although Lammens appeared to intend to disturb Suzuki, the contact was minimal and did not meet the threshold for VAR intervention. I also think we need to remember that this was a crowded penalty area, with players from both teams competing for the same ball. ❤️‍🩹 You can argue that the referee could have given a foul, but calling it an obvious robbery ignores how marginal the decision actually was. For me, allowing Dorgu's equalizer to stand was a reasonable decision, and Villa should be more concerned about how they threw away a two-goal lead twice.
