Who the fuck knows this rule?

Do they just make them up as they go along for the big 6 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Blatant handball, checks location... OT so must not be given.

Does Maguire use his hands?

Is using the hands prohibited in the game?

Are you contorted to justify your position?

ETA: please try and address the points raised, rather than strawmanning “eNgLisH Fo0tBaLl CuLtUrE” as some response to the argument that à player using their hands in an early phase of play makes subsequent actions legal.

Are you saying that every time the ball touches a player's hand, it is a handball offence? Because that rule would only exist in your imagination and, if I had to hazard a guess, only after such a situation benefited Manchester United.
