One week ago Sporting Kansas City headed to the great white north to take on Toronto FC. The game would ultimately finish with a 2-2 draw but the game was not without controversy. Sporting KC benefited from two penalty kick calls that led to their only two goals of the game.
In their weekly “Inside Video Review” segment, PRO Referees sent out Greg Barkey, Manager of Video Review to discuss all the calls from Week 15. Two of the four plays discussed came from the SKC game in Toronto.
The first penalty called was when Toronto defender Drew Moor reached out and held Gerso Fernandes to prevent him from getting to a ball he had just played off his chest.
