As with the France one, that's a penalty for me. And this time, I do think it was obvious enough to overturn it.
 
One of those ones that in my opinion was both a foul and a dive.

Foul but only a minor one (still a penalty)

Dive because he flung himself over to try and get the penalty and in doing so probably cost himself one!

The VAR will look at all of them.

The difference is whether the VAR feels there's enough there to alert the referee (or needs the referee to delay restarting play, whilst they look).

One day I'll get my wish where a player can get a foul (FK or pen), but also booked for simulation - where they proceed to exaggerate the foul.

Might be a long wait though.

Better still, the ref tells him as he’s booking him for diving that he would have got the foul if he hadn’t dived!
