It probably goes back to the intent of the law. The way the law is written is probably to make clear that a penalty is something you strike once. You don’t dribble your way to goal.
By the letter of the law, he’s guilty; but is that the intent?

Can see it a bit better here.

[edit]

Another angle here

Watch the sequence where the camera is on him after the ball goes in. He knew he made an error , could see it on his face

There's a clip of Agüero who's apparently become a streamer watching the pen live and he said immediately "shit he's touched it twice"

Was the right call, and he clearly gained an advantage by doing it, intentional or not.

It’s only a story because people like the idea of a real conspiracy. Can’t be kicking balls onto yourself

Yep right call. You could tell by the spin and flight of the ball that it was a double touch

Honestly, all this Alvarez chat just makes me think there's simply too much interference from referees.

It's boring always seeing headlines devoted to refereeing/the rules of the game. That's not what I enjoy about football and I don't think interventions like this one improve the game.

    Both Utd and spurs winning.

    It may be a case of us supporting Utd in the final if Spurs get that far. Can’t have Spurs winning a trophy.

      Sicario2 - Tier 1 Would have to agree.

      Nothing worse than being stuck on a train home with a bunch of Spurs fans leaving their match. What an ick 🤢🤮 poor me.

        Sicario2 - Tier 1 almost forgot what a cheat code Casemiro was at Madrid, guy could do literally whatever he wanted on the pitch somehow.

          Another angle of the Alvarez penalty.

          It's a very marginal call? There's no open and shut video evidence for it I've seen. People are just posting videos and photos like the one above and saying there's "clearly" a double kick, making claims about spin and trajectory and so on. VAR should make the footage and systems they used for the decision public.

            Burnwinter VAR should make the footage and systems they used for the decision public.

            Ah never mind. It was published and it's actually visible here.

                Qwiss

                Carlo is a perfect example of how managers are defined by the players at their disposal.

                You also so see great managers peak and fall and that always without exception correlates with shitter teams and players. We will see if now with Pep unless they bag some stars in the summer.

                  HomeSteak imagine the joy you're gonna be feeling come the end of the match. You lucky, lucky thing.
