I think we’ll find — as was the case with the “well documented, exampled, and explained to all referees associations” change this season — that PGMOL will interpret the new law in whatever way they like (read allows them to more effectively influence match outcomes).https://theifab.com/presentation-of-ifab-log-2020-21/
there are some slides here which explain the new laws with video examples of what would and wouldn't be ruled handball.
And yes, Jesus's goal v Spurs would still be ruled out because it "immediately" lead to a goal. It's one of the examples they use.
But it does appear that Mahrez's goal against liverpool would have stood, as apparently it isn't "immediate" when a player then has to dribble or pass the ball a further distance to create the goal scoring opportunity.
Immediately...
