On RefWatch, there was mixed opinion as to whether it should have been a RC. Smith said RC, Warnock a YC.  Dermot said that VAR didn't intervene because they didn't consider it a RC without making clear his own opinion as far as I could tell.
What they did all agree on was that there should have been a greater sanction by Andre Marriner than just a foul.

With regard to the follow through to Havertz's chest, I think the view was that it should have been a YC.  Was that the challenge Marriner didn't even give a foul for?

To be honest, I'm not sure that's the sort of consistency we want to see.  1 foul for 2 challenges that should have brought at least YCs.

There was unanimity that the upgrade to a RC for Casemiro was correct.  How AT only deemed it a YC from a few yards away and a clear view wasn't discussed.  And was it just me that found it slightly ironic after his Saturday game, Andre Marriner was the VAR who advised a FIFA elite referee he had made an obvious and clear error and to review it at the monitor.
Refereeing decisions are about positioning and angles, sometimes it isnt always apparent to an on field referee over a multitude of camera angles hence we have var.
I have always maintained the difficultest decisions for referees are the ones closest to the referee.
