'Bizarre decision' but not 'shocked' to see penalty awarded - Warnock‎

Arsenal's Ben White will feel hard done by Dutch referee Danny Makkelie's decision to award a penalty in the second half of their 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid after Marcos Llorente's shot hit White's leg and then touched his hand, which prompted penalty claims from Atletico's players. Initially, Makkelie did not award the penalty, but after communicating with VAR officials he was sent to the pitchside monitor, which ultimately led to him awarding a penalty. Former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard said referee Makkelie was "influenced" by the similar choice to award PSG a penalty against Bayern Munich.
