Panel backs officials over Amad penalty decision

The panel voted 3-2 against a spot-kick after Adrien Truffert's challenge failed to meet the high threshold for a foul. The incident occurred during United's 1-1 draw at the Vitality Stadium on March 20.

United manager Michael Carrick and pundits like Alan Shearer expressed frustration, arguing the decision was inconsistent with an earlier penalty awarded for a pull on Matheus Cunha. The panel backed the earlier penalty 5-0 but supported the non-intervention in this instance.
