They didn't post a clip of the penalty they were awarded which looked to be incorrect...
So another mistake? That puts an even worse slant on events. Anyway, I sympathize for him. The again, I don't.
Maybe I sympathize for the impacted team more.

Yeah I think you’re right.

I was penalising for this:

“prevents the goalkeeper from releasing the ball from the hands or kicks or attempts to kick the ball when the goalkeeper is in the process of releasing it”

But seems incorrect the more I think.
That's not the applicable part of the law. The goalkeeper was not in the process of releasing the ball (and the player was not trying to prevent him doing so).

Try this:

It could be argued that the keeper needs to be more careful with the ball in his hands.

I don't think it could - there is absolutely nothing anywhere in the laws that supports such an argument.
