It's accidental handball but it is handball 

These are the three conditions where a handball can occur:

Quote
  • deliberately touches the ball with their hand/arm
  • touches the ball with their hand/arm when it is in a position that makes their body unnaturally bigger and when that position is not the result of their body moving fairly as part of play
  • scores a goal against the other team with their hand/arm or scores immediately after the ball touches their hand/arm (even if the touch was accidental)


That did not meet any of them. His body was just moving ‘naturally as part of play’

Is this chip in the ball new VAR stuff going to be applied to the Premier league this season?

Have to say whatever the VAR decisions that are being made in the Euros, they have been quick.

Bullshit VAR call IMO. Brushed him as he was jostling with the defender and didn't alter direction of the ball from what I could see.

Yeah that's the argument, he's made himself bigger to fend off the defender, is that natural or unnatural?

It can be defined as unnatural 

I can definitely see why the ref gave it, it's not a bad decision, it's a decision that at least makes sense

VAR spoiling the excitement of a late equaliser, with a marginal decision. Perhaps footballers should have their arms amputated.

Would solve a few issues TBH, we wouldn't get offsides for a sleeve been offside either

A season or so ago it was that any handball in the build up for a goal (intentional or not) would rule out the goal. But they changed that. Was that in all of football or just in the PL?

No that's Vertonghen and Alderweireld from time at Spurs. Courtois is hated by alot of the Belgian players.
