AZ striker Mexx Meerdink was left frustrated after a potential penalty was not awarded to his team. The incident occurred just before half-time, when Meerdink went to the ground after being tackled by Feyenoord's goalkeeper Tjark Ernst. Referee Danny Makkelie initially signalled for a foul, but the VAR intervened and Makkelie changed his decision. Meerdink believes Makkelie did not see all the footage, but the KNVB has not been able to confirm this. The strongest point of contention is that Makkelie did not award a penalty, which ultimately had a significant impact on the outcome of the match.
