It was simulation (in my opinion).
There is very little, if any, contact from the first player and sterling is horizontal before the 2nd player is even close.
I'm usually one to back faster players, being reasonably quick myself, but I think the ref, and the VAR, have been had off on this one.
Gary Crisps disagrees.
I am open to being told I am wrong and why - Is the contact enough? No and I feel he is already going down pre contact.
