He's kinda taking penalties like Neymar now...

I don't understand how this is a handball, the ball barely touches his arm, and even so it was after getting deflected from his body.

Robbery; natural arm motion, close range torso first deflection. Absolutely 0 chance this should have been a penalty.

I was rooting against Newcastle, but man that's a harsh way to end the game.

I'm not a supporter of either side, but that's a bad call. It came off his body first.

Also, I hate Newcastle more.

When one nation state spends just a little bit more than the other…

Another day goes by and I still don't understand what is and isn't a handball

Barca should be held responsible for this decision, corrupt club. 😁😁

So harsh. So bloody harsh.

Karma has paid its debt.

Even as a Sunderland fan that penalty decision is atrocious.

Strange that this is a pen.

Newcastle absolutely robbed. This sport is genuinely cancer.

Fucking travesty

Karma for that fugazi goal they got against Arsenal

How the fuck is that a penalty ?
Corrupt fucks

Thats a truly awful call. the players running, when you run you move your arms?

I know people will only look at the call but what a hit at such a moment from Mbappe

not a pen but coulldnt happen to a nicer club

Simple solution, make all outfield players play while wearing straightjackets?

Uefa needs PSG needs to go through for the viewing figures

I think it's the correct call it's the end of the match you get paid millions a year, put your fucking hands behind your back. I wouldn't call it in the middle or beginning of the match because there's much more game to be posted. This is the end of the match, don't touch the ball with your hands.

I think we should all just respect the refs call

Either way there was a foul on Dembélé earlier so PSG deserved a penalty in that game.

VAR has not improved the game. We need to get rid of it

Ref shat himself. Never a pen.

If I was a certain Saudi prince a few UEFA officials would now be receiving invites to their local embassy to discuss this decision

Shame, really. I, for one, am up in arms about a ref making a bad call which truly fucks a club over. Couldn't have happened to a nicer club/fanbase at the moment.

What a disgrace, scandalous

I'd probably stop watching football if that happened to my team

Good process.

I've thought for a while now that handballs in the box should be punished with indirect free kicks. Penalties for them are too harsh, and I think that's most of the reason calls like this make people so angry. Some genuine handballs are also as accidental and unlucky as you like, and to have basically a free goal given for them is incredibly unjust. If we had that approach, I could easily see this being called with no uproar over it.

The refs career should be over. Can't make this decision (with all the tools ha had) and ref again.

Fraud call

Lord VAR has gifted yet another "handball" to the people, be grateful

Arab oil money bought another referee. Shameful!

So, I may be entirely wrong here, but I thought it's only considered a handball if intent can be reasonably presumed (or you're doing something wildly stupid with your arms, the ball hits them and drastically changes direction etc)?

As I say, I could be totally wrong with that, but I don't see how this would count as a handball if I'm not. Definite contact with the forearm, but zero chance of intent or even ability to expect it, really.

Oil money clubs. The underdog saved a point

u/SaveVideo

Games done and nothing we can do about it anymore

But I’m over seeing the constant VAR fuck ups, either use it properly or don’t use it at all.

Why even have a ref on the field if VAR are just going to overrule them or give wrong advice

its only a pen because it was for PSG, thats like 573847th time they got penalty in added time

Respect the referees decision. Stop crying
