Especially when you think what Moutinho was penalised for against Man City couple months back.

If that's an Everton player then Man City get the decision and, worse than that, their players would be surrounding the referee to give the decision. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s a pen but as has been said above, kavanagh is consistent because he made the same judgment at our place if kavanagh gives that then there is absolute uproar on here and quite rightly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll have to change the rule AGAIN for next year, it's getting ridiculous. No way they'll leave it as it is. The ref is taking pelters for it but in all fairness they've got absolutely no idea how to police it because the wording of the law is so fvcking ridiculous. Wherever thought up the sleeve thing was either a complete moron or deliberately facilitating corruption. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IFAB f up again by fiddling with a rule change which was ill thought out in the first place …. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just outrageous. I've heard so many excuses for these dodgy decisions and in this case none of them add up. It hit his raised arm. I don't care what percentage was above and below the sleeve line, there was clearly contact with his arm below the sleeveline. Clear and obvious? Well if the ref missed it and the video shows it hitting his arm, it's clearly and obviously handball! As for the alleged earlier off-side, from the still I've seen Richarlison doesn't even look off-side! Not that we saw any VAR stills with lines etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
