VAR couldn't do anything as the whistle had allegedly gone. This wasn't a VAR issue, this was just good old fashioned bad refereeing, which there is still plenty of scope for despite the new tech.
Didn't really see it as theatrics, he had to go down to get the ball away and was back on his feet before it was in the net, never even looked to claim anything from the ref. Perhaps it's his reputation that did for him.
