Yes. I still don't think it hit his arm, but if it did then he hasn't scored with his arm....if that's the the rule, which I don't think it is.

Re: Tonight's UCL Footy
Aren’t the rules next year that any contact with the arm is ruled out?
Personally, I think he got as much of his arm out of the way of the ball as he could. There was marginal contact near to his elbow then hip and in.
If it got scored against BFC, I wouldn’t be crowing about handball.

Re: Tonight's UCL Footy
That was amazing.
And why VAR was bought in, but hell, can you imagine scoring in the last minute and it being ruled out after you'd screamed your head off and bounced around for two minutes?
Ouch

Re: Tonight's UCL Footy
But if his arm diverted the ball onto his hip then he has indirectly scored with his arm.

Heh, I know, right?! The man city player made a deliberate movement towards the ball, it hit him, therefore offside. I think. I don't know either.
Smacks of Ashley Barnes vs Watford a year or two ago which was ruled out, but now wouldn't be. Again, I think.

He will just throw more money at some defenders and they really need to find another player like Fernandinho, because when he's not playing their defence is left exposed.

Re: Tonight's UCL Footy
I know, but for this season at least, accidental handball isn't penalised which is why I'm struggling with the fact that you're struggling with Llorentes goal. That's why Koscielny's goal was allowed to stand (the biggest issue there him being offside, not the handball) Either way, Llorente didn't score with his hand, he scored with his hip, a perfectly legal part of the body with which to score.Rileybobs wrote:I know but every single poster on here thought it should have been disallowed for handball despite it being unintentional.

Walker-Kompany-Laporte-Mendy is a seriously poor back four for a top side. It’s ok when you don’t need to do any defending but against top teams it’s very weak.Darthlaw wrote:Same at Bayern for him, Tiger.

Do I think Llorente’s goal should have been disallowed? No. But I’d like to know why some accidental hand balls that result in goals are disallowed and others not. The pundits in the studio can’t agree on it either.

Offside offence
A player in an offside position at the moment the ball is played or touched* by a team-mate is only penalised on becoming involved in active play

And Danny Rose cant wait wait to quit the game. After that why would anyone want that part of their lives to end.
Also as regards the Spurs goal it is nigh on impossiblt to see if it hit his arm but i think it did. Not that it should matter. His arms were in his body which we are being told all players should do now to avoid being hit by the ball. Cant have it both ways. Plus he was pushed in the back which will have affected his body movement

Accidental handball is only penalised when the officials think it's deliberate handball. Accidental handball is not an offense and so cannot be penalised.
Llorentes arm made no movement towards the ball, therefore if it did strike his arm it cannot be deliberate. If the ref thought it was deliberate, even if it wasn't, then it becomes deliberate. It's not an exact science. Next season it would probably be ruled out, next season Cardiff might have two penalties against us for handball, next season Koscielny's goal doesn't stand, (neither does his penalty for Ben Mee kicking him in the head but that's something different), but by every current version of the rules, as I understand them, in all of those instances the officials got the decision correct.

Of course, and a handball on the half way line is different to handball in the penalty area. I don't know why, just like I don't know why jumping with a goalkeeper is different to jumping with a defender. It's not perfect, not at all, but an arm in an unnatural position, to a ref at least, means the player is trying to gain an advantage, therefore it becomes deliberate.
I don't know. I'm playing devils advocate I guess, (hopefully!) without being such a dick as Devils Advocate is.

Re: Tonight's UCL Footy
I’m not even saying that it should be a handball - I’m questioning the inconsistent interpretation of the law. We saw a non-deliberate hand ball lead to a penalty awarded to France in the World Cup final following a VAR review. Surely with the technology the law should be applied consistently? I’m guessing next seasons changes to the law highlight that this is an issue and maybe the change will lead to the consistency.duncandisorderly wrote:Of course, and a handball on the half way line is different to handball in the penalty area.

Indeed. The penalty in the World Cup final was nonsense. Slow it down frame by frame and it looks deliberate as the ball rises as his arm descends. Play it in real time and the entire thing is perfectly natural. I think if you do the same thing with Ben Mee's handballs on saturday the same thing will happen, which is a nonsense. But VAR will eradicate these inconsistencies as it takes away the interpretation of the law from the referee and turns it into something black and white. It's not good, I don't think. But this is the future.
