Chamakh Handball?

[Spionkop69]

Sorry this is a couple of day's after the event but I've been away.

From where I was watching the game, it seemed apparent to me that Chamakh punched the ball on to the post or at the very least used his arm in the challenge with Reina.

But I've seen very little mention of it on here or in the press. Did my eyes deceive me?

Dunno, but I didnt get a good look on TV...were you at the game, SK?

Nope, was in Cornwall with my little girl for a few days.

That's some pretty keen eyesight you've got there John.

So that's a no then is it?

Perhaps I was looking for any reason possible for it to be disallowed!

It's hard to see in the replays because of the sunshine. He does lead with his arm - there's a suspicion but it could as easily have come off his shoulder.

I've just gone and looked at it a number of times on Youtube and it's really inconclusive. I don't see how the ref could give it - even though Skrtel and Carra were convinced, their arms went up immediately !
