[Inter Xtra] AIA Referee Chief: “We think that Cagliari’s goal is a regular goal. The player is trying to free himself, we don’t see an arm wide enough to make the player’s body unnaturally bigger with his arms. If that touch had been made by a defender, we wouldn’t have expected a penalty.”

“If this is the case for a defender, it’s also the case for an attacker.”
That all makes sense and shit, if there was actually some consistency to this. So many goals have been disallowed like this, and so many penalties were given with defenders in such situations.
It’s whatever at this point. If they can stay consistent with this I actually do like the no call there. They just have to stay consistent
