"I don't think there is any doubt that this is an error. Because they are grappling, I think Soucek wants to bring his arm from in front of Mitrovic to the back. He's lifting his arm up to put it on the other side of his head and has caught him with a glancing blow on the side of the face.
"I liken it to raising your hand in a bar to catch the barman's attention and you hit the person next to you with a glancing blow. You'd just turn, say sorry and get on with it, and I think the players were happy to get on with it.
"Where I feel for Mike Dean, the VAR triggered a review and he went to the review area. The VAR told him to look at Soucek's clenched fist, something VAR looks out for, because when you clench your fist it's as if you're giving power to a decision. Well, I don't think it was that, Soucek may have had a clenched fist but it wasn't to gain power.
