It was a Pomecano on Vinicius Junior, where English referee Michael Oliver gestured after it that there was a coming together, but in his mind it was very minimal and that Vinicius had basically thrown himself to the ground, which is how most people read it.

Don, I'll tell you how much you're going for.

And, you know, Tier 1 tickets were $5,000 apiece.
Wow.
