Jonas Eriksson on Argentina's penalty in the World Cup final against France: "Cheap"

However, Eriksson, who himself was an elite referee before and, among other things, refereed the Europa League final in 2016, understands why VAR did not step in and correct the decision.

- It is a very, very cheap punishment.

But there is contact and then VAR will not correct it, he says.
