You're viewing a single thread.
We weren't great, crazy that we legit should've had 4 pens instead of 2. The foul on Brobbey and the guy who dived one ball with his arm first in the first half.
Never let Weghorst take a pen again.
Again, sloppy game but with 4 of our starting 11 out injured we should just be happy we won.
IIRC, if a hand is supporting your weight while falling, it can't be given as a handball. That is presumably the judgement
He clearly moved his entire body and arm towards the ball to block it though. If the rules say that wasn't a pen then the rules suck.
Yeah but we both know that wasn't the case. He literally lunged at the ball.
Still hilarious that the replay just looks like his shoulder and the ball had some magnetic pull

yea by the current interpretation they can literally act as goalkeepers on low shots
