This Kurt Zouma tackle on Ronaldo was a controversial moment in stoppage time, with neither VAR nor the on-field referee of the view that it was a penalty. United fans however felt the Zouma foul on Cristiano was definitely a spot kick, perhaps even more than the Coufal vs Ronaldo incident earlier in the game.
This Mark Noble missed penalty vs Man Utd saw the veteran midfielder, subbed on to the field after the penalty was awarded, have his spot kick saved by David de Gea. The DDG penalty save from Noble took place in the 96th minute- in stoppage time, after Jesse Lingard had put United 2-1 with a fine goal. A Luke Shaw handball v West Ham saw the penalty being awarded
