Sweet Jebus. It has nothing to do with whether or you are a self proclaimed cyber soccer star or not.
It is, by the rules a penalty.
Is it harsh? Yes? Should the rule be changed? Probably. Will the replacement rule be much better? Probably not?
I don't give a fata whether it would be given by Var or not. The fact is Var is part of the game now, like it or not.
You quoted Rio and that Liverpool ambassador fella that went to United to win medals as not liking the call but ignore that they debated it with an official who clarified it for them that by rule of law it's a penalty.
Don't like it and want to go all Neymar about it? Sure. But the fact remains, harsh as it was, it was by interpretation of the laws the correct call.
