Everyone on here would be livid if Spurs didn't get a PK for this.
This is the problem when you slow things down and freeze frame them, Everything tends looks more dramatic and and gets over scrutinised. Players don't play in slow motion nor do they stand still on the pitch they play in real time and in this case the defender has a split second to react to the ball.
The natural movement to block the ball requires you to move your arms because you are extending your body therefore your hands are going to be away from the body in some capacity, if you have ever played football then you will know this.
I knew this was going to happen and called it after the Danny Rose incident against Man City, they're going to start giving penalties for nothing handballs and look what's happened, they've backed themselves into a corner now.
