Premier League Games 22/23/24 October '22

[MCFC1993]

I thought the rule in the Premier League is that the person who scores has to have handled it for it to be overruled.

I think it's only in the Champions League they can go back and intervene for another player handling it.


That's why Zouma's stands and Rodri's didn't.

Prefer the Premier League rule to be honest.

Ridiculous not to disallow that

 

[SamBlue]

That was a legit volleyball move, respect!

So if the ref misses it ?

If there is a clear and obvious error, then VAR could get involved. There’s no way that’s clear and obviously a foul.

The stupid bit is if that had been a defender, he could well have given a penalty away. That’s the silly aspect of the law.

 

[Jam Tomorrow]

Unless the handball was committed by the scorer, the goal stands in the premier league.

The muppets on Sky have just said the VAR mob deems it not deliberate, hence if it was deemed deliberate it would have been disallowed. Confused, you will be !

 

[Ghostofmerlin]

So each of the West Ham players could have punched it around and it's cool, as long as the guy who scores it hasn't handled it? That seems a little strange.

Carragher & Dyche saying goal should stand.
If that had gone against Liverpool or Burnley the would have been screaming at the ref.
100% handball

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Feel like the distinction is getting blurred. It’s not like the refs would get better at interpreting rules if there was no var. Wonder if the ref would’ve ruled that out without any var…

There is definitely a debate to be had about refs not giving as many decisions as they have VAR behind them to correct the obvious errors.

Wtaf? Spitty and dyche agree it was a goal??he twists his body to direct the ball with his hands towards the net

come on spitty even knew he had his eyes closed lol

Looked like a reception in volleyball - without his hands on the chest the ball would have never bounced the way it did.
