Not everyone agreed with the referee's decision to award the Three Lions an extra-time spot kick.

It's been more than 12 hours since England beat Denmark to book their ticket to the Euro 2020 final, overcoming the impressive Scandinavian side to set up a date with Italy in the ultimate game at Wembley. Unfortunately though, some have not yet gotten over yesterday's full-time result.

To be precise, it is the game-deciding moment that has many fans seething. A brilliant free-kick goal from Mikkel Damsgaard at the half-an-hour mark and the 39th-minute own-goal equalizer meant the game ended 1-1 after 90 minutes, thus heading into extra time.

It was in the dying minute of the first half in extra time when the controversy broke. Raheem Sterling, who had been sensational all game, was on another brilliant run when he was deemed to be brought down in the box. Danny Makkelie, who was the main official for that game, immediately pointed to the spot, sparking anger from the Danish players for the awarded penalty.

As is the norm, VAR got involved, with the official behind the screen deciding that there was enough contact on the Man City man from the challenges from Joakim Maehle and Mathias Jensen to let the spot kick stand. However, several fans disagreed after watching the replays, arguing that there was little to no contact on the Englishman.

One disgruntled watcher has now created a petition titled "Rematch England vs Denmark" in an attempt to get the game replayed. His name is Cris Pinto and he wrote: "We wish to overrule the penalty decision against Denmark. It was a wrong call, there needs to be contact for a penalty and there was absolutely no contact. If this is not overruled, it would show a failure by UEFA and the beautiful game of football."

What are the odds of this petition succeeding in getting the semi-final replayed? None. Petitions of such sort rarely reach the eyes of UEFA and FIFA, and simply have one bearing and that is to estimate the public opinion on such matter.

Just over 4,000 people signed this petition at the time of writing this piece, but they are not in the minority in thinking England's penalty was undeserved. Arsene Wenger and Jose Mourinho, two highly-respected managers who are well known in the English game, argued that the Sterling incident was not a spot kick, with the Frenchman telling beIN Sports: "No penalty. I don't understand why they don't ask the referee to have a look at it.

"In a moment like that, it's important that the referee is absolutely convinced that it was a penalty. It was not clear enough to say: 'yes it is,' and at least he should have had a look on the screen.

"I don't know why the VAR didn't ask him to go. For me, it was no penalty, no. I think that VAR has let the referee down, not Denmark. Denmark is a bit unfortunate.

"I understand that it's difficult for the referee, but he must have a look at it."

The Special One praised the performance of Southgate's men, stating that they deserved the victory, but also reached the same conclusion, telling talkSPORT: "It's never a penalty. The best team won, England deserve to win. England was fantastic, but for me it's never a penalty.

"The best team won, England are a better team than Denmark. Denmark played the way I was expecting them to play on to their limits.

"England was really, really good and no doubt they deserved to win that match.

"But, for me, it's never a penalty. At this level, a semi-final of a Euro I don't understand really the referee's decision."
