Like i said, i doubt you've ever tried to win a header in match in your life. He was clearly jumping, eyes on the ball, using arms to leverage to get to head the ball. laughable people saying he was not trying to get the ball and deliberately fouled Forster. Doesn't matter if it's deliberate or accidental. He collided with FF who had his hands on the ball. No goal according to the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple physics - conservation of momentum and the Spurs player gets a mahoosive headache. Who cares? I'd rather he drop the ball after a clear foul than do a Boruc.

niceandfriendly Posted 31 December, 2021 Share Posted 31 December, 2021 You're not allowed to jump back first into the keeper's hands when he's holding the ball with both. It's not a difficult concept to grasp. It's fine to hate Forster, but pretending it's not a foul to try and justify that hatred just makes you look really f*cking stupid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niceandfriendly Posted 31 December, 2021 Share Posted 31 December, 2021 The Kane offside one was harsh, incredibly tight. But after Adam's disallowed "offside" goal at Old Trafford last season I'd have been very upset if the Kane one was given. Can understand their frustration on that one. Certainly not the foul on FF though jesus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ball was in the air and the keeper and player were both going towards the ball. The keeper dropped it and the players touched. The player had his back to play to avoid a smack in the face.

The goalkeeping rule is pretty clearly worded... 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). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t like the rule either, but in context it is a foul even if Doherty went for the ball as Fraser had the ball when it got knocked out of his control. Same as Romeu v Villa last season. In fact that was even worse as their keeper actually dropped the ball onto Romeu and it went in. At least I think that was how it happened. For me, under the rules that are followed, it was a foul. So I think this debate is more so about rules being fit for purpose opposed to if it was a foul or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I’d be pissed as I was last season with Romeu, and pleased it went for us this time. The timing of when the challenge started ie the jump is irrelevant though, it is about the contact and if the keeper has the ball. Fraser did have it even if it was soft how it came out of his hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tajjuk Posted 31 December, 2021 Share Posted 31 December, 2021 It's a foul because precedent always says that is a foul, if that is two outfield players then it's not a foul but stuff like that on the keeper is always a foul. As they said in the commentary, Schmeical had a finger on the foul and was deemed in control of it and therefore fouled, Forster fully caught it and got barged into, there are no doubts about that. Should he have probably not dropped it? Yes, but that is irrelevant, actions like that on Keepers holding the ball are always fouls, always have been. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is not therefore making a challenge for the ball and if Forster has it under control as per the rules, it is therefore a foul. If Doherty is making a move to get the ball in a 50/50 situation and the keeper gets there first and thus has control of it, then surely its a foul. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
