A player with two arms on the back of another player, pushing them downwards, not looking at the ball but looking at the player they are fouling.
Any other circumstances it would be a foul.
We’re not even mentioning that the first point of contact with the ball was that arm, clearly not in a natural position.
Handballs don't get called if the person who handled it doesn't score when attacking
What if he handballs it forward to someone in an offside position while fouling a defender...
The goal was farcical.
That's only for VAR reviews though isn't it? So if the ref caught it initially it would've been a handball? Not the reason it should've been called back by VAR but it should've been called initially.
