Summary at a Glance

"I thought the on-field decision looked the correct decision, I'm a bit surprised he was asked to go to far because I thought it looked difficult to change your mind on that.

"I think when they go to VAR, you very rarely get them to change their mind, it's as if they think that the people seeing it on the telly see much more and understand more.

Although, Moyes didn’t share the same opinion: "I've had a look at it and I think undoubtedly he [Maguire] pulls his [Young] jersey and I think after that you have to make your own mind up.

After Andre Onana had pushed Idrissa Gueye’s shot back into a dangerous area, Ashley Young went down in the box under pressure from both Harry Maguire and Matthijs de Ligt as he tried to get to the rebound.

Referee Andy Madley did not hesitate and pointed to the penalty spot, but following an on-field VAR review, the official overturned his decision and with that, Man United left Goodison Park with a point.
