Iwata’s objective is getting higher each time you see it. Nick Pope might have gotten a slight contact as he leapt to his left however he had no likelihood of saving it.

The assistant referee wasn’t completely in line when he awarded Joe Willock’s objective. Even now, after 10 or extra replays, I’m unsure both approach.
