Lascelles made sure he fell into Kane as he lost his footing and it was a pretty clear penalty for stopping the attacker getting a shot away illegally. I was surprised because I thought the ref was essentially undecided and asking for the VAR outcome, rather than that he actively decided it wasn't a penalty and wanted that confirmed.

At the time I thought we were getting out of jail, albeit draws aren't all that much anymore.
Another draw last season would have put us third. You never know how these points add up until the final count comes in.
