No VAR error but Brentford denied penalty v Wolves - panel
- Published
The Premier League's Key Match Incidents Panel has ruled that Brentford should have been awarded a penalty in their 2-2 home draw with Wolves on 16 March.
But it was also decided that the VAR was correct not to intervene as there was no clear and obvious error.
The Bees were 2-0 up in the 41st minute when Kevin Schade was held back by Andre.
Referee Stuart Attwell allowed play to continue and there was no monitor review advised by the VAR, Paul Howard.
Wolves came back strongly in the second half to score twice and earn a point at the Gtech.
The KMI Panel said that the holding was "sustained" and voted 4:1 in favour of a penalty.
It was a split 3:2 vote in support of no VAR intervention.
