Everton fans were up in arms that the penalty was overturned despite De Ligt clearly having a hold of Young's shirt, but while the VAR did review that, he decided there was not enough to give a penalty.
Maguire had placed a hand on Young's hip but there was no obvious tug or pull to cause Young's fall, meaning VAR believed it was a clear and obvious error to award the penalty.
It read: "VAR checked the referee’s call of penalty to Everton for a challenge by Maguire on Young and deemed that no foul had been committed and recommended an on-field review.
It's the same as if the referee had waved play on - the threshold wouldn't have been high enough to overturn the decision and give a penalty for the Dutchman's shirt pull.
That's because the penalty wasn't originally given against De Ligt and therefore it couldn't be deemed a clear and obvious error.
