Newcastle tied with Paris Saint-Germain, 1-1. A shock decision occurred – PSG won a last-minute penalty. This gave Kylian Mbappe the chance to balance the score.
Eddie Howe voiced disappointment, noting they “had no more fortune” and disputed the penalty ruling. He pointed out the swift occurrence, stating it wasn’t an obvious penalty since the ball struck Livramento’s chest prior to his hand.
Although he felt things were unfair, Howe still complimented the ref’s job before the key incident. This happened in extended time when Dembele’s pass struck Livramento’s arm. This led to a penalty decision, reviewed by VAR.
