No I'm not. I'm trying to better understand why the decision was made, by pointing out why it may not have been considered a DOGSO (whether we agree with it or not) and to object to the criteria being used and to provide a more reasonable interpretation of what should have went into it that is consistent with logic and rooted in common sense.

Masturbating in public is never a good look.

Is there an IFAB Forum?
 
Another component to it was that Haaland was arguably creating a dangerous situation by lifting his boot as high as he did trying to get to the ball before the keeper, particularly given the position of the keeper's "head" in relation to Haaland high boot. Haaland was attempting to make a first touch onto the ball there, and had he not lifted his boot as high as he did to try to get to the ball before the keeper did, the keeper may not have felt the need to reach out across the line before he otherwise would have needed to, which created the handball.

Had Haaland not put the boot so high, Henderson wouldn't have had to reach out when he did (beyond the line) to swat it away before Haaland got the boot to it. And if Henderson had not reached out over the line, had he pulled back lets say, where do you think the ball would have gone from Haaland's high boot? Surely not towards the goal. Based on the direction Haaland was attempting to kick that ball, had he gotten to it, it would have surely been kicked on towards the sideline, not towards the goal.

Regurgitated nonsense. Remove Henderson from the play and Haaland is going straight to goal. Add Henderson to the play and he bats it away towards the sideline. DOGSO.

QED.

Henderson had every right to be there. Haaland was not moving towards the goal as he approached Henderson. He was moving diagonally.

Not only that, Haaland never had control of the ball as he was chasing the long cross and attempting to make a first touch onto the ball. Those are the facts. According to the DOGSO guidelines, keeping or maintaining control of the ball and general direction of play are two of the four components of what constitutes a DOGSO.

And to be clear, I'm not trying to argue that these guidelines should necessarily be relevant to the situation, but I am trying to understand what caused them to not consider it a DOGSO.

Oh dear.
 
Can anyone tell me when it was The Beautiful Game proclaimed he was finished discussing the cup final incident. Now he's implying Haaland was in danger of decapitating Henderson.
I had to re watch it to see how high Haalands foot was . About a foot

Just seen the clip again on Instagram, Henderson was pretty much on his knees when he handled the ball, so I don’t know what Haaland is expected to do! Very strange take on what has been accepted by most as a clear red

According to our lad richard the height of Henderson on a knee is little more than a mere foot.

I've seen some dangerous stuff in footy but that picture isn't one of them. Interesting that no one else has raised this 'dangerous' issue. I think it might be because it's bollocks. Most people, even Palace fans would accept that the ball went towards the touchline based on nothing Haaland did but the mighty smack Henderson gave it!

I was agreeing with him not you! According to you, Haaland’s boot was high which it clearly isn’t

I said it was arguably a dangerous high boot, given that it was about at the height of Henderson's head on a knee, and Henderson was on the retreat back towards the box. A moment earlier, had Henderson not been moving backward, that boot could have taken Henderson's head clean off.

There's a reason why Henderson kept his body and head away from Haaland. There's a reason why he extended the arm. Had he not retreated back into the box and extended the arm it could well have been a dangerous collision.
