Handball, hand moved toward the ball. How's it not a penalty?

Was about as blatant as a handball can be tbh.

Accidental as ****. Ball to hand, not hand to ball. No way was that a penalty. Not like Henrys's one, totally blatant and not given. Yes I'm still

We should have been at that World Cup. Cheating French ****s.

Yeah i understand why you'd want the French to lose Trolls but aside from that it really wasn't ball to hand as there was clear hand movement toward the ball.
It really is a clear cut penalty.

Proving to be a game tho.

Heavy.

Remember boys and girls, it's not racist if it's about the French.

We'll agree to disagree. Still, I think we can agree that the French have been lucky. They haven't played well at all - an own goal from Croatia and then a (so far as I'm concerned - and so are the pundits on RTE) dodgy penalty. Nothing from open play, no real fluidity in their passing, a lot of long balls. They're lucky to be ahead.

Croatia lucky to only be one behind tbh deflected shot.

It sucks when you can get a penalty kick on an accidental handball. It wasn't blatant and it certainly wasn't intentional, but I guess the rules are the rules.

It isn't over yet though. Croatia are the cardiac kids of this cup
