Imagine if that went against Liverpool
I’m a keeper and I would be absolutely rinsed by the rest of team if I claimed that was a foul.
That’s soft and I wouldn’t be happy if it were against us for sure, but the way Ali tried to jump and ended up going more sideways than upwards tells me it impacted him a lot more than what it seemed.
Good call by the refs. 👍 Refereeing has been fairly good so far.
A goalkeeper is considered to be in control of the ball with the hand(s) when:
the ball is between the hands or between the hand and any surface (e.g. ground, own body) or by touching it with any part of the hands or arms except if the ball rebounds from the goalkeeper or the goalkeeper has made a save
holding the ball in the outstretched open hand
bouncing it on the ground or throwing it in the air
A goalkeeper cannot be challenged by an opponent when in control of the ball with the hand(s).
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
I don’t think it should have been a foul, but I can see why it’s given and I can also understand why on-field decision should not be overturned unless egregiously wrong
Yeah GK’s are protected or you’d have pushes and shoves on them constantly to get advantage.
I get what you mean but literally the reason akanji isn’t closer to contend with the ball is because Alisson has pushed him away,which is way more contact than is then made by akanji in the challenge. I get why it’s disallowed but it feels really soft.
That Douglas Luiz goal against Arsenal last year makes this funnier. Gotta love prem refs.
I love that people say it’s not a foul. Even my girlfriend that doesn’t even watch football told me “are you allowed to grab the guy’s hand?” Lol
Reminds me of Rodri and Casemiro holding hands a season ago 😂
Clear as day foul. Akanji knew what he was doing before Alisson even began to jump.
Alanji tried a similar ‘lean’ later in the match too, as if pushing a GK into across their own goal line with the ball in their gloves would somehow count. That was also correctly called as a foul.
Never know in the PL. Hard to criticize players for trying this sort of thing with the chaotic standards.
it’s the Pep way to rattle individual players. This is part of tactics.
I mean, why not?
What is the penalty for the outfield player for pushing a keeper? At best you get a goal, at worst you give away a free kick. Sure, you might cancel a goal that was going to score regardless, but that probability is so much smaller than forcing an undue goal.
Clear foul
Absolutely incredible amount of morons in here without a clue about the rules of the game.
If this is foul then joelinton against arsenal is foul too. I say both are foul.
See, calling out PGMOL does make a difference, no everybody do it
Corrupted. The contact is extremely soft. Refs are corrupted. So fking dirty
Lol, the audacity of this comment.
