    This isnt the rule it was a recomendation, and we saw it last season with Lisandro Martinez against Sociedad. The UEFA handball rules are shit but at least they are consistent.

    Here’s my take: It’s a soft call. I’ll be honest, I have no fucking clue if VAR can/should go back that far in the play after a goal is scored.

    What I can say is, Mac’s arm influenced his control of the ball. It happens in football. Most footballers wouldn’t call that a handball but by the definition of the law, it might be.

    To me, the discussion shouldn’t be whether or not it was a handball. To me the discussion should be: Should/can the officials rewind the play that far back to disallow a goal for that?
