Forgot about this, the far too late substitution was expected but Fofana staying on was baffling. He was treading water for the last 30 minutes, and wasn't great before that. When we should be pushing for a winner towards the end, we were basically playing with 10 men again.

Can't go back after the restart, that's why the issue at Spurs v Liverpool happened.
Don't think the video ref gets involved on free kicks. I imagine they were pretty desperate for a reason to disallow after seeing the 'free kick' back, but there was literally nothing there, other than poor marking.
