Today’s Football 25/26 Season

So if the original shot had gone in, it was handball, but because the keeper had to make a save and they get the rebound 2 seconds later, the goal is allowed to stand.

lunacy

 

[Seathestars]

How is that not handball, a second before the goal, terrible decision

 

[MACCA75]

thats a clear handball from which they benefited, though?

Not directly before the goal.

Don’t otherwise often get handball when it’s deflected onto your arm.

Van Hecke is a player who looks better every time I see him. Really aggressive defender off the ball but very cultured on it

Would consider breaking the bank for him next Summer. Him and Branthwaite would be a brilliant big blond boys barrier at the back

 

[Victus]

they have made the rules too complex adding more and more stuff every year, it should be it's handball or not, none of this if the action carries on etc

….i don’t understand the rules anymore, i even thought the overhead kick was dangerous

 

[MACCA75]

Doesn't matter if it's accidental. The Brighton player gained an advantage.

I wouldn't let these officials ref a kids game...

I get it but that just not the rule. Had to be directly before goal or we just go into the realm of how far back do you go, and adds complexity.

If that's Everton VAR rules it out twice

 

[Old Blue 2]

And the overhead kick - head height! Dangerous play!!!

 

[BainesontoastNEW]

Brighton's crosses are frustrating as a neutral!

 

[maccavennie]

….i don’t understand the rules anymore, i even thought the overhead kick was dangerous

His foot was even higher than the players head for that overhead kick which is crazy

 

[Old Blue 2]

I get it but that just not the rule. Had to be directly before goal or we just go into the realm of how far back do you go, and adds complexity.

It was in the same passage of play. A matter of seconds...

 

[RomanReigns]

How much for West Ham and wolves draws and a win for Fulham?

 

[MACCA75]

….i don’t understand the rules anymore, i even thought the overhead kick was dangerous

Yeah if that’s against a top club then they 100% give a free kick for dangerous play.
