UEFA Euro 2024 Round of 16 ** spoilers ** [29th June - 2nd July 2024]

I mean, by the rules, it's a penalty.

It shouldn't be though.

I think they need to look at offside again, I mean a toe? Seems a bit daft.

Wonder if people's views would be different if it hit his hand full on and not brushed it

 

[adidan]

Automated VAR gives them that offside in seconds, right decision but how did they take 45 seconds to make that decision?

Handball, Tyldesley said what were all thinking.

Because it's English officials again tonight.

 

[Mr Jack]

And that's a bad miss

 

[adidan]

Havertz.... That could have been lovely.

 

[throwaway4372]

He's got his arm raised up, not sure why it wouldn't be a penalty

Coz it's a natural position. Ppl don't run about with their arms by their side.

Coz it's a natural position. Ppl don't run about with their arms by their side.

So if that happened on the line and prevented a goal you'd be fine with that?

 

[The_One]

I dont know how that is anything but a penalty

Spoiler: Or DO they?!

 

[robfosters]

Havertz is such a quality player when he’s on song

 

[Irish_Tom]

How have they missed again?!

 

[Trusty]

So if that happened on the line and prevented a goal you'd be fine with that?

That's the context that's been removed from these decisions. Your scenario, it's a pen. Andersens scenario is it's from a cross at the edge of the box and it's hit his arm in a split second.

Straw man

If one is a handball they both are.

[Trusty]

If one is a handball they both are.

And that's why all the ex players and most of the fans hate the new rule, it simplifies it too much

 

[Nitefly]

Whether it’s a penalty or not needs to be based on factual circumstances.

If it’s wildly different factual circumstances, it’s not really the same thing

 

[Mr Jack]

It's daft with all the wrestling and shirt pulling they let slide that booting it at a player's hand and gently caressing his fingertips is the thing that gets a penalty.

 

[C Kent]

thats a nice goal

Showing pound land haaland how to keep your composure when through on goal

 

[adidan]

Nice finish

 

[Mr Jack]

Quality.
