Gabriel would also have prevented it if he hadn't been fouled.

Gabriel goes down easily to play for the foul all the time. He did it repeatedly in just this match. There is enough of an element of doubt to make this not a clear and obvious error from the referee.

When I saw it live I felt that the goal shouldn't stand, but everything I saw from the Gabriel challenge part looked a little soft. I've seen Joelinton clatter into people, that wasn't it. Gabriel was already going down for the ball and it's not as if Joelinton sent him flying.

I wouldn't have complained if they hadn't given it from that incident and likewise I didn't complain when they gave it.

The one that I don't get is the hand ball, but I just don't get the hand ball rules now anyway. They've made that one even more opaqe.
