Some 'wonderful' comments on MOTD2 about to 'handballs' by Watford players.
Ball hit Will Hughes hand in build up to 2nd goal - no way was it deliberate but of course in the Mark Lawrenson law book, it hits hand = handball. Presenter and even Hughes himself seemed to think the main reason it wasn't given was because not many West Ham players appealed!
The best though came from the match commentator. Watford defender near goal line attempts a clearance, ball comes off his foot and hits arm on the way to going clear.
Commentator 'Ball hits his arm there, clearly not deliberate, but if it had stopped the ball going into the net then it would have been a penalty....obviously'
