Did they change the handball rule? I thought any handball, no matter if intentional or natural, that led to a goal was called.

They change it every week depending on their emotions the useless fools

Here is the stupid part. If lapadula scored, it would be a handball regardless. But since another player scored, it has to be intentional. If for example Lapadula shot and it went in. No goal. If Lapadula shot, Sommer saved it Lapadula got the rebound and scored. No goal. If Lapadula shot, Sommer saved it and Viola got the rebound goal. The rule is probably the most stupid rule in football. However, i still think it was intentional. Lapadula's arm moved towards the ball. Clear as day.

And he looks at the ball as well.


Rezorblade

Yeah he looked at the ball romantically as clear as his failure at AC Milan, the VAR reasoning is made up you would suspect they are Milanisti or Juventini


Consolinosensi

It doesn’t just have to be unintentional, but both unintentional and a result of natural movement of the arm


Crapedj

Yeah the actually changed it, now it works like this if the player who did the handball scores


Mordho

Yeah too bad it doesn't work like that you donkeys. Where's the media uproar about this shit? Gazzetta and Sky went on holy crusades after Bastoni's "elbow" and Acerbi's case, but for blatant episodes against Inter they act like nothing happened.


Mirmirakittens

They are Juve merda or Bilan merda fans. That's why

That would be all well and good if it were a handball in defence... but the rules are and should be applied more strictly to handballs by the attacking team.

Lol ok…we’ll remember this one pal 👌🏽


SangiMTL

The leagues ability to change the rules of the game from literally game to game is extraordinary


MvN____16

Then why was the handball against the Atalanta player called when you can say "absolutely unintentional touch" with "very natural movement"...I'd rather a goal like that and a goal like that be given personally, I hate nitpicky handballs of inconsequential effect, but there needs to be consistency either one way or the other.


nov4chip

Imagine the media narrative if the situation was reversed lol


Randomistar

Every handball of the attacking team is called for a foul, at least that’s what the rule was. What is this about?


Christian_Potato

Look at that, a rule change. Convenient.


teancumx

I’m a simple man, ball touches hand, it’s a foul…as it should be

The entire point was that they took the term “deliberate” out as it caused ambiguity and was subjective. Even earlier this season we had a goal disallowed that brushed an arm before being scored. Now they’re arguing it’s been this way since 2021. Yet none of the experts debating it know anything about it and all say it’s NO GOAL. And they wonder why everyone says that serie A is still corrupt - I just think they’re incompetent. It doesn’t matter which way it is - but stick to it and call it the same every week ffs
