Learn the rules guys before you complain about referees endlessly
Doesn’t fit the agenda innit
That’s not control though. The ball rebounded from the keeper. If he’d held it, it would be control. Also, “challenge” in this context is about taking the ball off him (like the awful non-decision in a Turkish women’s game recently).
The ball was between his arms making contact with both his gloves. That counts as control under the rules
Challenge can mean that Turkish call or jumping in the air interfering with a keeper trying to catch the ball
Regardless, the mere presence of contact implies a lack of "clear and obvious error"
Most VAR calls that people are mad about are also based on rules.
Tbh I see it more often people being upset at inconsistency. Sure when they happen it may be based on rules, but the other half of the time that don't get called pisses everyone else off
