"It's a massively contentious issue surrounding what is intentional and what is accidental. Last night there was a shocking penalty given against a defender who was using his arms to jump higher, ball brushes hand, ref eventually gives ridiculous penalty. The law states that the hand/arm must make a clear and deliberate movement towards the ball for it to be deemed punishable by penalty." Thanks, I thought deliberate was part of the criteria but I've seen at least 3 penalties where there was clearly no intent. The defender had their arms where any normal human needing to balance, would have them. Including the one you mentioned. | |||

The play gets slowed down , stopped , rewound and so on giving a totally unreal perspective . Last nights penalty was no way deliberate . It’s just going to mean no defender will even attempt to get the ball in his own box from now on . | |||

I wonder if the officials actually understand the laws themselves. There appears to have been a change in style where by the officials are reluctant to make a decision now, leaving it to the jokers in the trailer to make. | |||

There was one where a winger blasted a cross that hit a defenders arm which was behind him. The defender was right next to him so he had no time to react. | |||

"It’s meant to be when not intentional and it’s the players natural hand position. The problem being now is that every player and half the crowd will appeal for handball now even if it’s not intentional. The ref has a split second to make that judgement...the armchair supporters get to see it in hundreds of angles. " But so does the fourth official? | |||

Don't even mention him/her. 4th official is nothing more than a token gesture to control the technical areas. Too pussy to help a ref' make a correct and possibly crucial call durning the game. But he can patrol the technical areas like a boss | |||

Not until this World Cup they didn’t and they seems be getting used to decide whether something’s happened that the ref has missed rather than has he made the right decision or not. | |||
