Another day goes by and I still don't understand what is and isn't a handball

[–] MentalJack@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Thats a truly awful call. the players running, when you run you move your arms?

[–] Uniq_Eros@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I think it's the correct call it's the end of the match you get paid millions a year, put your fucking hands behind your back. I wouldn't call it in the middle or beginning of the match because there's much more game to be posted. This is the end of the match, don't touch the ball with your hands.

not a pen but coulldnt happen to a nicer club

Uefa needs PSG needs to go through for the viewing figures

[–] ProfesvanNostrand@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I think we should all just respect the refs call

[–] withereddesign@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Ref shat himself. Never a pen.

[–] Paced_Out@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What a disgrace, scandalous

I'd probably stop watching football if that happened to my team

[–] iAmWrythm@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Shame, really. I, for one, am up in arms about a ref making a bad call which truly fucks a club over. Couldn't have happened to a nicer club/fanbase at the moment.

If I was a certain Saudi prince a few UEFA officials would now be receiving invites to their local embassy to discuss this decision

[–] ShockRampage@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Simple solution, make all outfield players play while wearing straightjackets?

[–] Passerby991@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

VAR has not improved the game. We need to get rid of it

[–] TareXmd@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Good process.

[–] tnarref@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Either way there was a foul on Dembélé earlier so PSG deserved a penalty in that game.

[–] essentialatom@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I've thought for a while now that handballs in the box should be punished with indirect free kicks. Penalties for them are too harsh, and I think that's most of the reason calls like this make people so angry. Some genuine handballs are also as accidental and unlucky as you like, and to have basically a free goal given for them is incredibly unjust. If we had that approach, I could easily see this being called with no uproar over it.

[–] Chixohernandez@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The refs career should be over. Can't make this decision (with all the tools ha had) and ref again.

[–] Your_Mum_Is_So_Fat@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Arab oil money bought another referee. Shameful!

[–] Drogbaaaaaa@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] Potatopolis@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

So, I may be entirely wrong here, but I thought it's only considered a handball if intent can be reasonably presumed (or you're doing something wildly stupid with your arms, the ball hits them and drastically changes direction etc)?

As I say, I could be totally wrong with that, but I don't see how this would count as a handball if I'm not. Definite contact with the forearm, but zero chance of intent or even ability to expect it, really.

[–] whoaaaaaah@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Games done and nothing we can do about it anymore

But I’m over seeing the constant VAR fuck ups, either use it properly or don’t use it at all.

Why even have a ref on the field if VAR are just going to overrule them or give wrong advice

[–] Puzzleheaded-Oil9023@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

its only a pen because it was for PSG, thats like 573847th time they got penalty in added time

[–] edenedin@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I thought off the body ricochet isn’t a penalty?

[–] Top-Setting5213@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Good thing we have VAR to make things more fair guys

[–] Jeffery_Boyardee@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] XolieInc@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Uefa really out here proving how badly they want mbappe to make it far.

[–] jas26@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Oil money clubs. The underdog saved a point

[–] thomasfk@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Scandalous decision. If you allow this to be a pen, pretty soon you are going to have attackers purposely trying to lift the ball into the hands of defenders from point blank range to win pens. Completely goes against the spirit and integrity of the game and just plain common sense. Common sense isn't so common I suppose...

[–] thalne@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lord VAR has gifted yet another "handball" to the people, be grateful

[–] Darksider123@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

UEFA is a sham

[–] Interesting-Season-8@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Once again soccer sub showing they don't understand the rules.
