Referee Samuel Barrott made the correct call, denying a penalty claim by Southampton. Replays confirmed no foul, and the player might have been simulating. The game saw a goal by Ross Stewart and a missed opportunity by Scienza, who was not penalized for simulation.
Just three minutes into proceedings, the Championship club were crying out for a spot-kick, with Scienza going down under pressure from Gabriel Magalhaes, but his shouts fell on deaf ears., with Ross Stewart opening the scoring for the home side in the 35th minute, but it could have been an even quicker start on the south coast.
Scienza goes down in the box after a challenge from Gabriel – Saints fans scream for a penalty. Replay shows it was the correct decision. Cracking start to this game, though.After watching replays, it was suggested that the Saints’ No.13 may have been fortunate not to be cautioned for an act of simulation. Now, we have a specialist’s view on the incident., the former referee said: “Referee Samuel Barrott, after a great sprint, was ideally positioned to correctly turn down appeals for a penalty kick by Southampton. “Early in the game, he decided not to yellow card Scienza for the act of simulation. I support this decision.”Scienza caused the Gunners all kinds of issues during the first half, and his early penalty claim was just a warning of what was to come from the 27-year-old Brazilian.Of course, the home supporters were absolutely desperate to see the referee point towards the penalty spot, only to be left disappointed as no such decision was made., Darren Cann said: “For me, there’s no penalty at all, no contact or very little contact. The forward is looking for a penalty. I do not expect VAR to intervene whatsoever.” Tonda Eckert’s side kicked on anyway, taking confidence from their early chances, and Scienza should have poked his side ahead before Stewart capitalised on a mistake from Ben White. He had rounded Kepa Arrizabalaga, but having taken too long to get a shot off, he was crowded away from goal and forced into making a foul inside the penalty area.
