The referee was correct not to award Newcastle a penalty during Wednesday’s defeat at Manchester United, says an independent panel.<\/b><\/p>\n

Sofyan Amrabat stepped on the heel of Magpies winger Anthony Gordon as he ran into the box late in the first half, with United leading 1-0.<\/p>\n

The hosts went on to win 3-2<\/a> and the incident, which Gordon said was “a clear penalty”, has now been reviewed by the Premier League’s Key Match Incident Panel.<\/p>\n

In the verdict, which has been seen by BBC Sport, one panellist believed the “left foot of the defender impedes the attacker on the back of his heel ” and was enough to warrant a penalty.<\/p>\n

However, the other four panellists felt otherwise and the non intervention from the video assistant referee (VAR) was unanimously supported.<\/p>\n

“[Amrabat] goes down my Achilles and pushes me in the back,” said Gordon. “I don’t mind the referee getting it wrong on the pitch, but I don’t understand the point of VAR.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
