Apart from this being totally illogical, how many rule changes have there been in the interim.

I remember a similar incident in the Cup Final when Fred Keenor kicked Tunstall in exactly the same way and no pen was given. This proves the Joe Allen incident def wasn't a pen. And VAR didn't over-rule the ref then either.
That was definitely a penalty. Keenor did it deliberately. I saw him wink at the camera when the ref waived play on.
