Oh my.
The new law regarding handball will result in many many penalties in the future. But makes it even harder for referees without assistants and especially VAR.
I mean, clearly not even thought about until VAR got involved.
She had to look at the video to double check.
If I go to a Sunday morning game, with the exact same scenario and angles, I'm not giving a penalty. But I bet I'll be moaned at all the time for not giving.
Now, in the 33rd minute the Scotland player had the arm up and it strikes the arm and the ball fells straight to her feet. No penalty.
But the arm up whilst defending the cross from about 4 yards out and VAR gives it.
Personally think they've made it harder.
