Thank you. I withdraw my troops suggestion.

Sure, if you want to see James Bond die.

100% agree.

Looks to me like VAR did exactly what it was supposed to on that call. You couldn’t tuck your arms in any further to try to avoid the handball than that defended did. Textbook ball to hand in my opinion, but I can see why the ref originally called a handball in a split second decision.

I would challenge this sentiment having played college soccer in one of the toughest conferences in the country. 2 of the 4 years I played, the Big West had a team in the National Championship game.
