(Dan Tri) – Coach Gary O’Neil announced that he received an apology from Premier League referee chief Jon Moss after Wolves were denied a penalty in the match against Man Utd.

In Wolves’ away match at Old Trafford, while being led 0-1 by the `Red Devils`, coach Gary O’Neil’s team would have had a chance to equalize if the referee recognized the penalty in the first minute.

Accordingly, Man Utd goalkeeper Andre Onana rushed out of the 5m50m area to block Pedro Neto’s cross.

Referee Simon Hooper did not give Wolves a penalty and although video assistant referee (VAR) technology was in check, there was no decision to overturn the English referee’s decision.

Even VAR referee Michael Salisbury did not ask referee Simon Hooper to review the screen to check the situation more accurately.

Coach Gary O’Neil was very angry and reacted violently on the sidelines, but in the end he had to receive another yellow card from referee Simon.

However, according to Dailymail (UK), sharing after the defeat just a few hours later, coach O’Neil said he had received an apology from the head of the Premier League referee committee, Jon Moss.

`I spoke to Jon Moss and had a very frank discussion with him, he apologized to us, admitted that it was a very deserved penalty for Wolves and we should have received it,`

`This makes me feel even worse. When you know you were right about something, you feel worse when you leave the match empty-handed,` the 40-year-old added.

Notably, Wolves protested against the referee’s mistakes last season and had at least one apology from referee chief Howard Webb.

I just think it’s human nature.

That’s why I think VAR will be able to help more in those situations.

It looked like the goalkeeper punched our centre-back in the head.

I understand the rules, but I don’t fully accept it.
