I don’t think it was madness by Rodri at all. The spin on the ball after Edersons save caught him out after the bounce.

And he was bringing his shoulder round to use his chest, imo. Impossible to do that without moving your arm unless it's dislocated, so it looked like a deliberate arm to ball movement.
Or maybe not. Who cares?
Of course it was madness. Even risking a handball with no one around was fucking mental.I don’t think it was madness by Rodri at all. The spin on the ball after Edersons save caught him out after the bounce.
Not sure you understand my point. Never mind.Of course it was madness. Even risking a handball with no one around was fucking mental.

imo in situations such as this (not under pressure from an opponent, not facing goal, obviously accidental) at worst an indirect free kick should be given over a penalty. The handball rule is a bit of a nonsense.I don’t think it was madness by Rodri at all. The spin on the ball after Edersons save caught him out after the bounce.
Sorry if I'm missing your point. Feel free to explain. Or not. All good.Not sure you understand my point. Never mind.
You said it was madness by him insinuating that it was something he was at fault for. I don’t agree. I think the only thing he’s guilty of is misjudgment of the bounce. That’s not madness, it’s unfortunate and accidental.Sorry if I'm missing your point. Feel free to explain. Or not. All good.

for a defender, should only be handball if it's blocking or controlling a ball played by the opposition, the only exception being the player clearly palming it away i.e. a deflection off their own player.imo in situations such as this (not under pressure from an opponent, not facing goal, obviously accidental) at worst an indirect free kick should be given over a penalty.

Handball should be below the elbow anyway. No human I know has a hand as part of their bicep.

and Pickford should have been sent off and a penalty awarded to the victims. But he wasn't and so life moves on......
