I don't understand the hysteria, both are clear penalties.

First is played by Lovren making Kane onside who then gets taken out, The Lamela is full on kicked, Nani got sent off for less. Both go down easy but the laws don't care about that.

Bollocks. Both were 100% penalties. Soft in the sense of falling over at the slightest touch, but correct as per the laws.

First one Lovren played the ball making Kane onside, then was taken out by keeper. Second one he was clearly kicked. 100% a penalty... Nani got sent off for less.

I watched a piece on Sky UK and they interviewed an ex referee who said the same thing.
