But it did cause a significant deviation of the ball

I don't think that any of the 3 recent Ipswich ones were pens.

I think this is more a pen than any of those three because when you see it in real time you can see he makes contact on the foot and that does trip the player up - if you are moving at pace that could trip you up. My main point though is that having been given, it should not have been overturned. Had it not been given I would take the same view also - would not expect it to be overturned by VAR.

The scum ones are different in my opinion because either there is no contact at all in the case of our game or, with the others, the contact is not enough or of a nature that should send a player crashing to the floor.
