Syndicated PL commentators were sure it was.
They also thought that Sergio's being twisted around whilst running at pace 'wasn't enough' for a pen.

Their goal was a hard to spot decision that could have gone either way.
The ref missed two penalties though:
One in the first half where Gundogan was all over Boli during a Wolves corner (Gundogan got a chop on the back of the neck for his troubles) no idea how the ref didn’t give that.
The second on Silva where everyone thought it was a penalty, even the Wolves fans

Silva's was a definite penalty the guy catches his foot which makes him trip up. Sergio's was a dive though

isn't that the whole point, it shouldn't be going either way, that goal would have been chalked off if VAR was in place

Silva was a penalty. Agüero was a penalty.
At that level, when running at pace, it only takes the slightest touch to send a player down. Agüero was motoring and clipped by Moutinho. It matters not that he went down two steps later, he went down as a result of the contact. Even if we had done it, I’d have no beef if it were given.
Mentioned it elsewhere earlier, but Atkinson seemed to be positioning himself in areas that he knew would block off the passing angle to Mendy when we had an overload on the left. Oliver didn’t take up those positions last week but Atkinson did today, which Must be deeply frustrating for the players.

It shouldn’t have been a penalty but the referee would have given it.
@karen7 I agree, the rules need to be sorted out: it’s not so much VAR as the quality of the refs. VAR can be great but when we get to a stage that set-pieces are scored from as much as goals from open play then something isn’t right.
How was Aguero's any less a penalty than Salah's last week? It's the inconsistency (intentional or not) that's the problem

I’m no longer expecting or surprised by referee decisions against us. It’s just the way it is.

Neither was a penalty.
