you got it, except it was not controversial

it is a penalty flat out. The Mexico player came from behind and beat him to the spot. If the defender wasn't fast enough to kick it or secure the place, then too bad, it is a penalty. Just the way it is, it was controversial, because it was England and they had gone up 3-1, but really any other game out there, even without VAR, that is a penalty.

By the way I hate the lazy refs we are seeing, they see the play in front of them and don't call it. They wait for the VAR to come in and correct it. Not sure that the ref association is seeing this, but might as well have robots out there if you are not going to call things on the field.
