Sasa Kalajdzic was taken out by Andre Onana in the dying minutes of the clash with Manchester United, but a VAR check did not overrule Simon Hooper's decision not to award a penalty.

Now, O'Neil has confirmed referee and current PGMOL Select Group 1 Manager Jon Moss has apologised and admitted it was the wrong decision.

When asked if he was told why it wasn't given, O'Neil said: "I was live, yes. They didn’t think it was a clear and obvious error. But having just spoken to Jonathan Moss, and fair play to him to come straight out, he just apologised and said it was a blatant penalty and should have been given.
