    What planet was John Moss on yesterday
    Watching MOTD I watched Walker get a challenge wrong and bring down Armstrong from behind. Clear Pen and under today’s double Jeopardy rules a yellow card

    Moss correctly awards the pen and incorrectly gives Walker a straight red

    VAR ref tells him to look again. My assumption was over the Red card not the Pen but Moss overturned the lot.

    I am wondering if refs are now so terrified of disagreeing with the VAR ref that they just automatically overturn all decisions when asked to check without thinking through what happened

    Also did the VAR ref just say look again or does he say why.

    A clear penalty, bizarre decision to overturn it
