    Real Mard will be real Mad if he sees the hand ball call that gives YB
    the 3rd goal penal.

    Werner should be happy though.

    Lol I’m still fuming.

    The TNT Sports commentator (English) was very critical too, as he summed
    it up, Bardakci’s hand was in a natural position for a player doing a
    sliding challenge. Ball bounced off the calm onto the arm, don’t see how that’s a penalty.

    I notice Okan Buruk has made reference to the ref being German
    potentially having a bearing too. There were similar comments in the
    Turkish media when Urs Meier gave decisions thought to be unfavourable
    to Galatasaray in their Champions League game with Hertha Berlin 25
    years ago (where did the time go??). I don’t think that should be a
    problem myself, but I don’t see why UEFA risks such criticism when they
    could have surely just appointed a ref from a non German speaking
    country?

    It was in reference to Salzburg match.



    No I'm not, points for Switzerland are bad for us in the UEFA
    coefficient race, and general Alpine Wonderland bragging rights.

    That was a tough one. I think the ball went off Bardakcı's
    leg first which shouldn't be a pen according to the current
    interpretation of the handball rule.

    The fact remains though that he went in flying with outstretched
    arms to block a shot. In such a scenario a handball call is
    always a possible scenario, and I don't see why it shouldn't be.

    What nonsense, dont ever become a VARobot or ref, it was a horrible
    call. I dont know if you walk and run and jump and swim with your arms
    behind your back? But no one else does.




    Ciao,
    Werner

    Enzo Maresca was happy to do his bit to keep you all happy...

    No penalty for me.

    why it shouldn't be.

    Hmmm... arms outstretched to try and deliberately play the ball
    or to keep balanced whilst making the challenge? It's subjective
    but for me that was a harsh call. I don't like to see them given.
