    The rule isn't if it's deliberate Caldwell, it's is it in an unnatural position that influences the play

    We look like doing nothing, Bernadeschi goes on a "if nobody else is going to do something, I can at least try to do something" run and we get a penalty...

    Games in Atlanta are always so weird

    Caldwell also mentioned that the shot was going to wide which doesn’t factor in the decision either.

    Caldwell is a joke. After this game I’m never watching a broadcast with him calling it ever again. I’d rather watch it in another language than listen to him constantly beg for calls to in the opponents favor.

    I'm always partial to defenders given I was a defender in situations like that, and FIFA did clarify the rule recently and said handballs should only be called if the arm is in an unnatural position. I will say that I don't think his arm was in an unnatural position. With that said Caldwell's commentary was horrendous. "The ball was going wide" Irrelevant.
    "It was unintentional" Irrelevant. 90% of handballs are unintentional.
    What matters is was the arm close to the body and in a natural position as its supposed to be to avoid handballs as best as a player can. Caldwell never says that.

    The VAR officials are paid the same as the refs...carrots.

    VAR this year has been REALLY REALLY poor about clear and obvious.

    Ball hits his hand - penalty called. It has to be clear & obvious the hand was in an natural position - that is very hard to make ever.

    Lol@ Akinola having a contract through 2024. I can’t believe he gets paid to play professional soccer.

    So the reasoning is going to be this


    The ref called a foul

    VAR said it was clear and obvious it wasn't a foul (according the VAR & then ref)

    It was not clear & obvious it was a hand ball


    SO


    The ref screwed up calling it a foul

    VAR legitimately points out its not

    BUT...they both screwed up by not calling that a handball


    Yup, pay them in carrots...

    Good thing he'll be gone next year.

    He might do well in a high school league.

    He and Okello have both been pretty horrendous and Jayden has the vision of a 101-year-old one-eyed Tibetan monk with astigmatism.

    Twice Bernardeschi made good runs toward the backpost. Both times Jayden saw him late.

    Okello is just a puzzle. So much potential, so
    little effort.

    I'm entirely baffled as to what a hand ball is at this point.

    If they bring him back as "local flavour" for the Apple broadcasts...there might be a riot.

    Bravo Westburg

    Horrendous officiating - it was clearly a fucking handball!

    Still not impressed by Kaye

    Burn needs more service.

    "Absolutely no hand ball"

    VAR is a sick joke in MLS. They make a ref who doesn’t really know what he’s doing second guess himself and call it clarification.
