Looked a clear penalty. Duffy's not one to throw himself to the ground.

[Albion] Peno at the end?

On the highlights just now they said Duffy made a bit of a meal of it but ‘you just can’t do that’ in terms of the arm fullly round his waist by the druggy. I’d say 50/50 seen them given. Ref didn’t want to give it last kick of game. Only showed one replay with difficult angle.

Seen them given, also the shove by Duffy on Zahaha could also have been given by a different ref! Didn't know about Dunk's near post back heel, feck me he was unlucky.

Penalty was bang level with me, clearly grabbed by the player and pulled down. But it would have been a bold ref who'd have given it in the last minute.
Mind you, Murray's effort that was cleared off the line was an obvious shove that no-one picked up on

That Duffy shove on Haha was a sight to behold.as he clattered into the advertising hoarding....but also I was a little surprised he got away with it...anywhere else a freekick

Indeed. There's a big difference between a subtle barge and shoving someone in the chest with both hands.

Never played the game then - or know very little
Not sure it relevant that you have never player the game but your knowledge is.
Which one is it? or are you PPF in disguise?

It was right in front of us, and the ref. No penalty in my opinion, Duffy made a meal of it.

it was more or less in front of me, looking on from the North. Not a penalty - i mean Duffy of all people getting pushed over?

If that was a penalty, what about Duffy manhandling zaha in the first 10 minutes and shoving him into the hoardings...that was a 100% stonewall penalty.
Definitely a pen in my opinion - right in front of me. Can’t understand why the lino didn’t give it - he had a perfect view. But then we were lucky to get away with the shove on Zahaha in the first half.

Sadly the ref was already waiting to blow the whistle when the goal-kick gets taken, and wasn't about to throw in a last minute BIG decision. My first thought was PENALTY, immediately followed by, "nah, he won't give it this late." Like a bad tackle in the 2nd minute of the game, you have a great chance of avoiding a red simply because of when it happens. Shit, but true.
My lad was watching a foreign stream that highlighted the incident and showed replays. His assessment 'would have been very, very soft, but Sakho pretty stupid to take the chance'.

Dunk saw yellow for exactly that foul in the middle on Zaha, so why not a foul in the box?
Extremely soft yes, but it's a foul anywhere else.
