That's one way of interpreting it though. The other is that Gabriel is leaving forward to head it back over his head.

It's a marginal call. You can't just decide you know exactly what happened and then claim its an outrage! Gabriel himself didn't even complain about it at the time.

You can only decide that two straight arms to the back of the head and neck impede Gabriel to move his head back. That's a foul in itself. Then you can also notice that they weren't straight at the beginning of the action and that all muscles on Gabriel's legs get more tense throughout because he is trying to resist the push.

He literally threw his hands up straight after...

Gabriel is doing what you said. Joelinton pushing down on his neck and back stops him from doing so. Ergo it's a foul (also a handball)

Joelinton doesn’t even play the ball. It would be one thing if he’d headed it but he the ball comes in and hits his arm.

Gabriel didn’t complain? You sure?
