Southampton v Newcastle (1 Viewer)

What the fuck is Don Goodman on about.

Armstrong hits it with his hand off the defender and then it goes in. Goodman banging on about it not going in directly from his hand.

Is there a new rule you can punch the ball in as long as you aren't the last to touch it?

The handball rule is it’s ruled out if it hits the hand of the goal scorer. Technically it then hit someone else in this case

Using that logic you could punch it in off somebody else and it stands?

Well no it only applies to accidental handball

It didn't. It hit Armstrong's own knee after his arm.
Can see it pretty clearly from this angle. It's the correct decision.

Joelinton’s should have stood in first half so it equalled out really
