UEFA President issues SAD NEWS on Anthony Taylor, referee for the match between Manchester 2: 0 over Chelsea and this have cost him his Job

Replays showed that the ball hit the Croat under the arm, which led to a question about what the rules of football are. Law 12 of the IFAB talks about what a pass is. This is what one sentence says:

“It is against the rules for a person to touch the ball with their hand or arm when it has made their body bigger than it should be.” “A player has made their body bigger than it should have been when the position of their hand or arm is not a result of or appropriate for the player’s body movement in that situation.”
Even though Kovacic’s arm was not in the best place, the fact that he was close to Gusto’s goal saved the former Chelsea player. This rule, which is up to the judge, checks to see if the player had time to put his arms in a normal position before the ball hit his arm.

A statement from the Premier League says that judges will still think about how close the player whose hand or arm touches the ball is to where the ball was hit when deciding whether to give handball or not.
Kovacic made things worse for Chelsea when he scored Manchester City’s second goal soon after. City started their title defense in a strong way.
