@ZekeFooty @BrianCowton @Slotoholic Maybe but that isn't the point. You have officials applying subjectivity to an objective decision. Essentially they didn't want to disallow the goal so they said it was "inconclusive". Not to favour United but because it would appear pedantic.

@subcat001 @BrianCowton @Slotoholic Yeah it probably was but it might have benefited Liverpool bc sesko was pulled 1v1 through on goal right before that Could’ve been 2-0 with a red card instead

Yes, we're shite and deserve this result, but come on, this is a clear handball!

@ZekeFooty @BrianCowton @Slotoholic The law is objective in this case. Does it touch his hand? Yes. Flight and spin of the ball changes, at the same time his fingers bend back. Does he score from it, or immediately after? Yes. It's a handball plain and simple. VAR bottled it. We've seen it happen before.

@subcat001 @BrianCowton @Slotoholic Var is for clear and obvious This was not clear and obvious

@BrianCowton @Slotoholic That's the exact purpose of VAR. They just chose to bottle it. And it didn't need to be zoomed in. You can see the change in the ball's flight without it. Grasping? You mean like Sesko?

@subcat001 @Slotoholic It was so clear that it had to be slowed down, zoomed in and played back in slow motion. Seriously, grasping

@markgoldbridge Thanks to VAR.

Liverpool beaten home and away for the first time in ten years

@empireofthekop That's a red

Fernandes booked for catching Dominik Szoboszlai on the ankle with a nasty challenge 🟨

@markgoldbridge Should be 1-1 now.

What a shit goal to concede

@BrianCowton @Slotoholic It is clear. His fingers literally move and the ball spin changes. Unless you are suggesting this was caused by massive body passing by the earth at that exact moment in time? It was a clear handball. Basic physics.

@Slotoholic Hardly clear ffs. Give it a rest. We are shit. It shouldn’t have been disallowed for that.

@Snuffy_07 @Slotoholic His fingers bend back and the spin of the ball changes. It's a handball and shouldn't have stood. Simple.

@Slotoholic not a handball cmon ball was moving in that direction only we r dogshit rn. the decision was fine

@amvbcn @nocontextfm1 Bollocks. It touches his hand and the laws of the game are clear. Not should have been disallowed but VAR bottled it at Old Trafford. There have been plenty of similar goals disallowed for similar handballs.

@nocontextfm1 Yes, it appears that ball changes direction ever so slightly after brushing his fingers. But it’s not enough to cancel the goal for me, not clear and obvious

I’ve watched this 10 times and I still can’t decide if it’s a handball or not… What do people think? x.com/NEWMedia90/sta…

@a488346 @nocontextfm1 They can. They just choose not to. His fingers move back and the spin of the ball changes.

@nocontextfm1 If no one can figure it out then that's precisely why it's a goal

@JamesCushion @dailydoseofftbl @nocontextfm1 So we shouldn't disallow goals for handball then? At least that's clear.

@dailydoseofftbl @nocontextfm1 I mean, I agree you shouldn't disallow a goal for it, but the rules say you must.

@jonr1d @nocontextfm1 😂😂😂 His fingers literally bend back and the spin of the ball changes.

@nocontextfm1 Looks like his finger nails graze the ball but can’t be 100%

@dailydoseofftbl @nocontextfm1 It's a handball. His fingers literally move and the spin of the ball changes.

@nocontextfm1 Never a handball, it hits his hand but you can't overrule a goal because of fingernails

@nocontextfm1 It's a handball. It's flipping obvious. His fingers move and the spin of the ball changes.

@BBCMOTD Not going to mention that Sesko scored with his hand.

Disastrous start for Liverpool 😬 Manchester United are 2-0 up inside 15 minutes thanks to goals from Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Sesko. This is the earliest Manchester United have ever gone 2-0 ahead in a Premier League match against Liverpool.

@SkySportsPL It's a clear handball. No consistency from VAR yet again.

Manchester United are FLYING! Benjamin Šeško doubles their advantage! 🔴

@empireofthekop It's a handball but as expected they didn't overturn it.

Goal is given. It's been that kind of day for Liverpool

Sesko bundles the ball in and it's 2-0 to Man United already. Liverpool have been an absolute shambles in this opening quarter-hour

@JamesPearceLFC It's a handball....but they are never going to overturn a goal at Old Trafford

Goal given

2-0 Sesko

@markgoldbridge Handball....no consistency

Let's go Sesko!

RIP Alex Zanardi. We´ll always remember you from this epic last lap, race-winning overtake at Laguna Seca 1996. (and that´s why they still refer to it as "THE pass")
