As a FIFA B Referee I tell you, that was 100% correct call.
-> Player can jump with his hand behind him OR close his arm, he opened his arm here and the ball hit it and Changed direction, had his hand not been there, it would go towards the goal. according to the RULE, its a PK
-> Where in the Rule of the game say you need to account for the tiredness? Rules are rule, min 1, min 120! doesnt matter.
Those are the LAWS OF THE GAME, and it was applied correctly in this case. I am also checking FIFA Ref forums and almost everyone saying it was correct call.

Bullshit call by the ref, but I am happy with the result.
