Dutch fans on social media believe they were robbed by VAR while England supporters argued Saka didn’t touch the ball with his hand.
One X user wrote: “The Netherlands were 100% robbed! VAR even missed or didn’t care about Saka’s handball on both hands before the penalty situation. Lucky England should thank the refs.”
A second tweeted: “Referee was caught match fixing. A ref. could never be this bad.”
A third added: “VAR has robbed the Netherlands 100% here. How did VAR not notice this?”
A fourth argued: “Can’t really see a touch on his hand to be fair but the referee was dreadful and gave England every decision, a real stinker.”
Another commented: “Never touched his hand… the ball kept spinning in the same pattern. Play it in slow motion… close but not handball.”
