This disallowed Josh Maja goal vs Spurs saw an equaliser for Fulham controversially disallowed by VAR. Tottenham defender Davinson Sanchez kicked the ball onto Lemina’s arm in the buildup, and VAR ruled that it was handball by the Fulham player before Maja scored his goal.
Davinson Sanchez Lemina handball incident VAR plus Maja disallowed goal v Spurs for Fulham in real time
Spurs ended up winning the game 1-0.
That’s an incredibly harsh call against Fulham.
Davinson Sanchez escapes big time here.
Diabolical decision.
If Lemina had his arms in an “unnatural” position instead, he would’ve probably survived this handball because it would have hit his hip.
Hudson Odoi against United is not handball, but this Lemina one is? He is a yard away from Sanchez, there’s literally nothing he can do to avoid the hit.
So cruel on Fulham, but the rulebook states that’s handball simply because it’s from an attacking player.
