FA Cup Final 15/May, Chelsea v Leicester

[Vic]

it keeps getting changed week after week ?

the advantage should be the question here ? if the Leicester player gain advantage when he miss controlled it and then it bounced up on to his arm then the goal should not be given because the ball would have gone to a chelsea player

If I tell you the rules (as clarified in March) will you stop telling us what you think they should be?


'As the interpretation of handball incidents has not always been consistent due to incorrect applications of the Law, the members confirmed that not every touch of a player’s hand/arm with the ball is an offence. In terms of the criterion of the hand/arm making a player’s body “unnaturally bigger”, it was confirmed that referees should continue to use their judgment in determining the validity of the hand/arm’s position in relation to the player’s movement in that specific situation.

'Following this clarification, it is a handball offence if a player:

• deliberately touches the ball with their hand/arm, for example moving the hand/arm towards the ball;
• touches the ball with their hand/arm when it has made their body unnaturally bigger. A player is considered to have made their body unnaturally bigger when the position of their hand/arm is not a consequence of, or justifiable by, the player’s body movement for that specific situation. By having their hand/arm in such a position, the player takes a risk of their hand/arm being hit by the ball and being penalised; or
• scores in the opponents’ goal:
  • directly from their hand/arm, even if accidental, including by the goalkeeper; or
  • immediately after the ball has touched their hand/arm, even if accidental.

Accidental handball that leads to a team-mate scoring a goal or having a goal-scoring opportunity will no longer be considered an offence.'

 

[Whether or not]

Really pleased for Leicester. Rodgers is a perma tan knobhead, Kasper is a rag, and Vardy is vermin, BUT their owners are great and they are a proper club with proper working class fans, so congratulations, great goal and great result.

2021 Cup "cup goalie" costs city in the semi, then Chelsea in the final, obvious the small Kepa is rubbish and long shots and they would try to take advantage.

2019 same thing cost Wolves v Watford in the semi and then Watford in the final.

I prefer to call him Comedy Kepa.

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

that's what am saying it should be hand ball if the ball was going to a player that could score
a missed controlling of the ball on to the arm is a mistake if you gain advantage both in or outside the box

but if it comes off somebody else first and hits your leg and bounces up on to arm its not miss controlling the ball or a mistake . its simple the advantage leicester city player gained when the ball was stopped by the arm

Here you go.

It is an offence if a player:

• deliberately touches the ball with their hand/arm, including moving the hand/arm towards the ball
• scores in the opponents’ goal directly from their hand/arm, even if accidental, including by the goalkeeper
• after the ball has touched their or a team-mate’s hand/arm, even if accidental, immediately:
• scores in the opponents’ goal
• creates a goal-scoring opportunity
• touches the ball with their hand/arm when:
• the hand/arm has made their body unnaturally bigger
• the hand/arm is above/beyond their shoulder level (unless the player deliberately plays the ball which then touches their hand/arm)

The above offences apply even if the ball touches a player’s hand/arm directly from the head or body (including the foot) of another player who is close.

Except for the above offences, it is not an offence if the ball touches a player’s hand/arm:

• directly from the player’s own head or body (including the foot)
• directly from the head or body (including the foot) of another player who is close
• if the hand/arm is close to the body and does not make the body unnaturally bigger

Watford lost 6-0 to us in the 2019 final. I think it was a bit more than their cup goalie ...

Tell you what, that second save by Kasper was world class. I wish he could get together with Eddie and coach him on how to strengthen his hand. In return Eddie could give him a crash course on how not to kick the ball into touch 85% of the time.

That's the wording of the law. See above for the clarification in March.
