Like it was a penalty but you can’t help but think that MO was falling over anyway before the tackle. You know the way when you have had 7-8 pints and you hit a stumble, it is almost slow motion and you do what you can to stop it, but you are going to go over.
He was off balance and I don't think he would have been able to score as a result. Given which, it was decent of the defender to foul him obviously and clumsily and ensure we got a pen.
