SO!!! since he called handball there was no way out but red card!! Come thru now???? no..... you are wrong first, i already showed you the rules about red/yellow cards.. nowhere in the laws says that a handball is an automatic red card. FIFA seems to leave this to the discretion of the referee second there was NO intent. look up the replays, here is one. fifa.com it was a hand ball because the aussie player had his arms extended (AND stopped the ball from going in the net,) ... hence the penalty. however, the ball hit his hand, not the other way around. therefore, since there was NO intent by the aussie player to use his hand (as we have seen in other instances), NO need for cards at all. again, notwithstanding a new rule as of this WC. (which i cannot find anywhere) got it ?
