ReplyDeleteMissed yc and foul on gk 62 min
ReplyDeleteHand of the atacker on the face of gk

ReplyDeleteHand ball and holding before the goal
ReplyDeleteFirst ofr for beida
ReplyDeleteVery difficult handball to see live
ReplyDeleteYep jut it was holding on the défende before the handball he should catch that

ReplyDeleteGood OFR, correct call, hard to see it live
ReplyDeleteGood job by VAR room. Handling before goal almost impossible to spot live.
ReplyDeleteI'm not convinced on this handball, according to the laws. And, a major decision upon review.
ReplyDeleteHere is the law on handling related to the immediate goal. It only references that player now. So, then, is it deliberate or unnaturally bigger? I find that hard to see.
scores in the opponents’ goal:
- directly from their hand/arm, even if accidental, including by the goalkeeper
- immediately after the ball has touched their hand/arm, even if accidental
I think there was potential foul by attacker separately, but I'm not convinced by the handling since different player was the one that eventually plays the ball into the goal.
DeleteThe hand not in natural position so it's offense
DeleteI know all federations and competitions have slightly different perspective on the position, but to me the hand is in justifiable and natural position for defending in that position. That's the standard in updated laws, not just distance from body.
DeleteYou misunderstood the rule.
DeleteIt is an offence if a player scores in the opponents’ goal immediately after the ball has touched their hand/arm, even if accidental.
Doesn't have to be deliberate or unnaturally bigger, that's why you have "even if accidental" part.
I know but this is caf thing so it's punissable by caf
Delete@CarlRDM - my distinction is that the goal was scored by a separate player, not by the player who had the ball touch their arm. That's the nuanced distinction. If the player who handled, even if accidental and natural, had scored - would be very good and correct review.
DeleteIt was called because of the position. Not because a goal was scored after. Has nothing to do with ”immediately after”. It was effekter away from the body.
DeleteThe holding on the defender should be called but he didn't catch it good call by the var
ReplyDeleteWrong OFR IMO. Ball hits the body first, arm in natural position. Never a punishable handball. It also wasn't the arm of the scoring player, but from a teammate. VAR shouldn't have intervene here
ReplyDeleteThe arm can be in a most natural position in the world but the goal can't be scored directly from the hand/arm, even if accidental or immediately after the ball has touched hand/arm, even if accidental

DeleteThis only applies to the goal scorer!
CarlRDM. Law changed 2 years ago…
DeleteCorrect YC for Sabitzer
ReplyDeleteClear handball to much time on monitor and that shocking me he didn't spot it in live with his position
ReplyDeleteAlso not the best angle shown at the start, the second one was better. Maybe hard to see from his position, his AR should have helped him imo.
DeleteWell he chose to much right and enter the box and being to close to play so his responsibility to spotted yes the ar2 could help but when the ref to close the action will not interfere
DeleteAnother ofr which should have clearly been seen live by the ref
ReplyDeleteSecond OFR. This time, penalty should have been given on field
ReplyDeleteTwo interventions from the VAR room, which means an early return; therefore, we have the first referees heading home.
ReplyDeleteThere was clear weakness in identifying key decisions, and overall, the referee’s performance in this match was poor.
Very good Beida for 99 minutes, what a shame about the missed handball! The other OFR is wrong, and Beida was shown terrible angles that would only support a handball judgement. The ball rebounded off the body, the arm was not in an unnatural position and the goal was scored by somebody else. To allow the goal originally was correct
ReplyDeleteIn general standard performance from beida nothing outstanding. As always sometimes his to soft and sometime let play flow . He missed the holding and pulling before disallowed goal . And he missed the handball in the end with his good position. We could see him as 4th from now unless something happen
ReplyDeleteComments on pefroamcnes:
ReplyDeleteStandard performances delivered from Atcho and Beida, without big issues, but obviously lack in way of decision making,and disciplinary/technical way. Again, without impact on final result,what is excellent,expect to see both of them once more in GS.
Very good performance by Marciniak with some missed YC through the game. Yes,through the game he avoid to call marginal things and let game flow, but some YC need to be given.At the end, good start for him.
Hi Mikael,
