Can't see anything on the FIFA site but found this elsewhere:

"In general, the referee should determine the location of the foul based on what gives the greater benefit to the player who was fouled. FIFA has specifically endorsed this principle in one of its “Questions and Answers on the Laws of the Game “ (12.31) which states that a penalty kick is the correct restart if a player begins holding an opponent outside the player’s penalty area and continues this action inside his penalty area."

Any referees on the board able to confirm if this is true or not?

"A penalty kick is awarded if any of the above ten offences is committed by a player inside his own penalty area, irrespective of the position of the ball, provided it is in play."

If the foul is committed outside the box it's not a penalty. Fairly simple and the referee got it wrong based on his linesman's advice. :ok:
