It turned out to be correct!
Well we can’t buy a penalty and Spurs get gifted two imo. The through ball is aimed at Kane who is offside so the flag should be raised immediately. The fact that it may have clipped a defender on the way through is irrelevant. The second incident shows a minimal contact with a theatrical going to ground. If those penalties had been awarded against us I’d have been spitting feathers.
