I can still remember the Irish finding much amusement with the Maradona handball goal in the WC, so there's very little sympathy here.Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment

It took about a day for one photo to prove maradonna handled the ball, I watched the game and it was never clear what happened from the TV pictures.
This incident is totally different.Comment

If the ref asked the player 'did you handle that' he should then make a note of the reply and allow the game to move on accordingly.
The player could then be tried later based on the video evidence, if he has been shown to have lied.

Originally posted by EternalOptimist View PostPersonally, I sympathise with the Irish. I think the game should be replayed and I think the rules should be changed. Not a video ref though, that would be too disruptive.
