Referee Andre Marriner made the correct decision not to award Manchester United a penalty following Nacho Monreals challenge on Antonio Valencia. Thats the view of former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher, who says Marriner made the right call during Uniteds 1-1 draw with Arsenal on Saturday.We asked Gallagher to give his verdict on several of the weekends controversial incidents, including Callum Wilsons penalty appeal against Stoke and Virgil van Dijks shirt pull on Roberto Firmino at St Marys. W Brom vs Burnley November 21, 2016, 7:00pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass MATCH: Stoke 0-1 Bournemouth, Premier League, SaturdayINCIDENT: No penalty for Bournemouth after Ryan Shawcross challenge on Callum Wilson Were Bournemouth denied a blatant penalty against Stoke? SCENARIO: Wilson is through on goal and brought down by Shawcross, but the Stoke defender is not penalised.DERMOTS VERDICT: Wrong decision.DERMOT SAYS: The only thing I can say here is the learning point for the referee is, if you miss something you miss it. Dont see something that didnt happen - hes pointed to the ball as if the defender got the ball, which he quite clearly didnt. Its stonewall, you will never see a clearer penalty.INCIDENT: No foul by Wilfried Bony Was Wilfried Bony lucky to avoid a red card against Bournemouth? SCENARIO: Bony is on a yellow card when he appears to go over the top of Simon Francis leg. The referee awards a drop ball after a conversation with the fourth official.DERMOTS VERDICT: Wrong decision.DERMOT SAYS: He awarded a drop ball because he doesnt think it is a foul - its definitely a foul. The referee hasnt seen it for whatever reason, but its definitely at least a second yellow card for Bony. It could well be serious foul play and a red card. It certainly wasnt an incident where the referee should be giving nothing.MATCH: Man Utd 1-1 Arsenal, Premier League, SaturdayINCIDENT: No penalty for Nacho Monreals challenge on Antonio Valencia Should Man Utd have had a penalty against Arsenal? SCENARIO: Valencia skips around Monreal and goes down in the penalty area, with the Arsenal defenders arm across his Manchester United opponent, but the referee does not award a spot-kick.DERMOTS VERDICT: Correct decision.DERMOT SAYS: I dont think it is a penalty. Monreal runs a risk by putting his arm out but Valencia is already on the way down. So many people looked at this on Saturday, some said yes, some said no, thats how tough this decision is. When that is the case, you have to support the referees call.INCIDENT: Matteo Darmian avoids second yellow card after challenge on Carl Jenkinson Should Matteo Darmian have been sent off against Arsenal? SCENARIO: Darmian had already been booked when he went in late on Jenkinson on the touchline. The referee gave a free-kick but did not issue a second yellow card.DERMOTS VERDICT: Wrong decision initially, but correct decision overall.DERMOT SAYS: I think the referee makes his mistake by booking Darmian for the first challenge on Theo Walcott, I dont think it is a yellow card. Whether later he then thinks Ive been too harsh, I dont know, but for me the second challenge (on Jenkinson) is a yellow card. In isolation its a booking, but I think he may have thought, Im going to have to send him off for two yellow cards and one wasnt. When you look at them together, hes got the right outcome as Darmian stays on the pitch. Overall, he got it right.MATCH: Watford 2-1 Leicester, Premier League, SaturdayINCIDENT: Danny Drinkwaters apparent elbow on Valon Behrami Watch the incident involving Danny Drinkwater and Valon Behrami SCENARIO: Behrami goes down off the ball after an apparent elbow by Drinkwater but the referee appears not to see it.DERMOTS VERDICT: Drinkwater likely to face retrospective action.DERMOT SAYS: Its obviously not seen by the referee and I think this is quite blatant. The referee is following the ball and you have to presume he didnt see the actual incident. If you see that as a referee, you are sending him off. Nobody can argue with that because the pictures are quite damning.MATCH: Southampton 0-0 Liverpool, Premier League, SaturdayINCIDENT: Virgil van Dijks shirt pull on Roberto Firmino Take a closer look at Virgil van Dijks shirt pull on Roberto Firmino SCENARIO: Van Dijk pulls Firminos shirt as the Liverpool forward approaches the Southampton penalty area, but referee Mark Clattenburg waves away Firminos appeal.DERMOTS VERDICT: Van Dijk should have been penalised.DERMOT SAYS: This is a tough call for the referee because its difficult to determine whether its inside or outside the penalty area. It happens so fast. If its outside the penalty area, its a red card and a free kick. If its inside, its a penalty and a yellow card. Its tough for Mark because Van Dijks body actually shields the offence. It was not an easy one and Im still not sure whether its inside or outside even now.Upgrade to Sky Sports now and get 12 months half price. Hurry, offer ends December 4th!

Midway through a busy opening Saturday of the college football season, Las Vegas oddsmaker Ed Salmons couldnt help himself. He had to look.Wisconsin, a double-digit underdog, had just taken a 13-0 lead on LSU early in the second half. The public had pounded LSU. The point spread moved across the market, growing from -10 to as high as -13. Seemingly every parlay, every teaser was hooked to the Tigers.Salmons logged on to the Westgate SuperBooks what if screen, a computer program that calculates how much the book would win or lose if a game ends with a specific outcome, and plugged in the score: Wisconsin 13, LSU 0.I expected to see a certain result, and it came three and half times more than what I thought, Salmons said. It was probably the biggest college football winner weve ever had.And thats not even counting the implications to the books national championship futures market. More money was bet on LSU to win the national title than any other team in the offseason at the SuperBook.Bolstered by the Badgers 16-14 upset of LSU, Las Vegas sportsbooks cruised to a profitable opening weekend that sent a pair of Texas upstarts shooting up the odds board to win the national championship and left Clemson bettors scratching their heads.Two Texas contenders?Houston moved from 80-1 to 20-1 to win the national championship at the Westgate, after the Cougars impressive 33-23 win over Oklahoma. Houston has been an underdog four times under coach Tom Herman and won each game outright. The Cougars opened at 100-1 to win the championship back in January. Salmons said the SuperBook took 29 bets on Houston at that price, ranging from $5 to $300, Salmons said.This feels like Boise State from a few years ago, except Houston has more good will built up with its wins over Florida State and Oklahoma, Salmons said. I dont there will be anyone arguing against them if they go undefeated.Texas also made a significant leap up the odds board, moving from 100-1 to 20-1 at the Westgate, after the Longhorns win over Notre Dame on Sunday. The Texas-Notre Dame game on Sunday was the most heavily-bet game of the weekend at Las Vegas sportsbook operator C.G. Technology. The largest point spread bet William Hills Nevada sportsbook had taken heading into the week was $44,000 on Texas +4. The Longhorns beat the Irish 50-47 in double overtime.Texas A&Ms overtime win over UCLA didnt garner nearly the amount of respect that Houston and Texas received. The Aggies remained at 100-1 to win the national title at the SuperBook.Clemson-AuburnC.G. Technology vice president of race and sports Jason Simbal said his book couldnt buy an Auburn bet all week. Eight of every 10 bets had Clemson, and 80 percent of the total money wagered was on Dabo Swinneys Tigers, who closed as 8-point favorites at most sportsbooks.Leading 19-13 late in the fourth quarter, Clemson drove from its own 25-yard lline to Auburns 23.ddddddddddddThe Tigers faced a 3rd-and-10 with 50 seconds to play and were just looking to run out the clock. But running back Wayne Gallman ran out of bounds after a 6-yard gain, leaving Swinney with a decision on 4th-and-4.He elected not to risk kicking a field goal that would have put Clemson up by nine and instead went for it on fourth down, handing the ball again to Gallman, who failed to pick up the four yards.There was lots of grumbling at the end of Clemson-Auburn, of course, South Point sportsbook director Chris Andrews joked. But I loved it.Auburn, with no timeouts, took over and moved into position to get a pair of Hail Mary attempts into the end zone. But Clemson survived for a 19-13 win.Everybody was on Clemson all day, and then a lot of people re-bet, parlays with Alabama-to-Clemson, Simbal said. Getting Auburn to cover there kind of capped off a good day.Not everyone was disappointed by Swinneys decision. A bettor at William Hills sportsbook at the Hyatt in Lake Tahoe staked $122,000 (ticket on left) on Clemson winning straight-up at -320. The bettor netted $38,125.Odds and ends? The Kent State-Penn State game attracted the only six-figure bet reported this weekend by MGMs sportsbook. A regular house player backed the Nittany Lions, who closed as 23.5-point favorites, but failed to cover in a 33-13 win. However, the MGM gave that six-figure victory back Monday night, when Florida State rallied from behind and covered the spread in a 45-34 win over Ole Miss.With the parlays that kicked in from this weekend, we need Mississippi a little more than usual, MGM assistant manager Jeff Stoneback said in the hours leading up to Monday nights game. We can lose close to six figures if Florida State covers the game with the parlays tied in.? William Hills sportsbook took a $40,000 moneyline bet on Tennessee (-1,300) to beat Appalachian State straight-up Thursday night. The bettor won $3,076.90 when the Volunteers, who trailed heading into the fourth quarter, prevailed in overtime.? Three off-the-radar games attracted the most action from respected players at the SuperBook. Salmons said sharps targeted Wyoming against Northern Illinois, Western Michigan against Northwestern and Southern Miss against Kentucky. All three underdogs won outright.? Nevada Gaming Control released revenue numbers for July last week. The states books won $11.8 million on baseball in July, making it the most profitable month ever for baseball, according to gaming control.
