Even Lukaku can't miss from that distance. If it's onside.
edit: it was not.

Superb clearance but I think he'd wish he'd missed the knee afterwards.

What a block. Did not deserve a knee in the face for that effort.

I think Belgium right now are the first team who’ve felt desperate so far in the tournament. Its like they’re on the verge of going out in a knock out game not the first game in the group.

Give Lukaku about 20 chances and he may score one.
edit: or maybe not, fucking hell!

Think this is going to be disallowed.

I’m sorry, but I think that’s ridiculous. The ball didn’t change direction and no advantage was gained. VAR is ruining this and I don’t hold a candle for Belgium.

A football snick-o-meter. Well.

The defender is all over him, of course his arms aren't going to be in a natural position. Guy is trying to fend off the player and his arm springs slightly away from his body. The path of the ball barely fucking changed as well.
Man alive.

I want Slovakia to win obviously, but Belgium gotta be furious if they lose.

I didn't realise the snickometer was being used in this, bit of difference in hearing a cricket ball on bat than football and body part.

Logically the handball didn't help the Belgian player at all, but I don't mind that interpretation if its consistent.

That second one should have stood but I am enjoying the upset narrative.
Snick-o-meter sounds like a device for measuring laughter on an American game show.

And there's England struggling to make the case for a 1-0 victory. And this Belgium game is why it wasn't half as bad as people are making out.

The SVK player was trying to strangle him just before the "handball".

Actually seeing that again, the ball may have crossed more into the defenders path but for the handball. Accidental, but he benefited from the touch.
Lescott with the incredibly boring 'you have to played the game' line on it. Honestly that should be an instant pundit yellow card for banal idiocy. Why stop there? Let's make sure every VAR has a biomechanics PhD as they'd really know what natural is.
Is the 'natural position' thing still even relevant? I lose track with all the different reworkings.

I thought they'd done away with the whole deliberate/benefitting thing as long as it wasn't the goalscorer. But also can't keep up.

Its currently any contact if your arm isn’t straight by your side, isn’t it?
I think you need a component for interpretation for handball. It looks like it barely brushed his fingers by accident, its not like he gave it the full Henry to steer the ball.
