I dont think anyone can say with any certainty there is no corruption in football. It's been proven many times and at the very highest level, indeed here in the UK. It would be naive to dismiss corruption out of hand.
Media seem obsessed with making Son look like the victim here tonight.
Like what is actually going on.
I feel very uncomfortable with this nonsense.

It’s the PC brigade. It’s in full momentum.
Yeah and we'd have beaten Brighton.
But we didn't and var intervened.
So of course were mentioning it. Var is a media driven farce to manipulate results.

No it’s not. You’ve got to consider body position, the direction and trajectory of the ball and whether or not the opposition gained an unfair advantage from it.
Spurs didn’t. Nobody claimed. You are quite literally clutching at straws. It’s embarrassing.

But it has gone to VAR, the VAR that was supposed to right all the refs wrongs. Then they review it and decide it wasnt handball, when City were punished v Spurs by a totally accidental handball, the RS got a penalty in the Champs League final for handball, there’s others too. And that wasn’t handball. Where’s the consistency?

I thought that, bang out a few a tears and it's poor Son, it was a cynical challenge because he got caught by an elbow seconds earlier, the dirty rat should feel ashamed
It’s actually sucking the emotion out of the game. It’s got so bad now that I’m not even surprised with certain decisions and the worst thing is I don’t care
I would have though most teams would, apart from a certain few and we know who they are....
OK, I'll take you on face value.
The advantage is having the illegal contact of the ball where it wouldn't otherwise have happened. That's the defensive advantage. It doesn't matter where the ball then goes, it's still stopping the ball from going the way intended.
The rule says and gives a major advantage from an attacking perspective as an 'explanation', not as part of the rule. It's actually explaining the previous set of rules - namely these - that deal with offensive football.
The only reason the word 'usually' is in the next set is because it's allowing for situation where the attacking/defending player has been ragdolled and has no control of their body. It says exactly that in the explanation.
Note the bullet points - it's adding literally point by point further clarity, which is why the first few refer to an offensive version of a handball.
Your mistake is the interpretation of the word "usually". It's only there for 'natural' reasons for the arm to be elevated above the head, which is why it can't be definitive - nothing more.
Body position? As in having your hand about a foot above your head?
No you don’t have to consider whether the opposition gained an advantage from it, it was handball. By your logic a centre back from a short goal kick could just pick the ball up and put it straight back down and it wouldn’t be handball.
Absolute lol at that. I’m the one clutching at straws, not a single person on here agrees with you. You make yourself look a complete and utter tit on here every single day. You’re the most arrogant, deluded and self important poster I’ve ever had the misfortune of interacting with on this site. The day you’re driven off here will be a celebration for all.

Only reason the pen was given against us last week was because of VAR, we don't set the rules but if they are going to apply them them then they should be fair and consistent in every game
