We got super lucky but we’ll take it

Also if Onana doesn’t start on Saturday Inzaghi is racist. No other explanation

Hard to believe De Vrij keeping Lewa in his pocket :D idk why Inzaghi sub De Vrij off for Acerbi, that was unnecessary and risky sub.
He seemed to injure himself minutes before the sub.

Pazza Inter all the way. Never change. A most needed win, specially for morale.

Hope we keep this up.

Only way to go if we are to see ourselves in the 1/16 brackets. Good work team.

You should read or watch about Inter history my pal. We were 2 time European champions while Barca was farmers club.
I don't need history book to tell me that we won CL back when my dad was a kid. If my math isn't wrong 15 years ago was 2007, what football were you watching that Barca was a farmers club? and we would have been barca's bitch had we met more often

The new handball law in full

It is a handball offence if a player:



  • deliberately touches the ball with their hand/arm, for example moving the hand/arm towards the ball;
  • touches the ball with their hand/arm when it has made their body unnaturally bigger. A player is considered to have made their body unnaturally bigger when the position of their hand/arm is not a consequence of, or justifiable by, the player's body movement for that specific situation. By having their hand/arm in such a position, the player takes a risk of their hand/arm being hit by the ball and being penalised; or
  • scores in the opponents' goal:
    • - directly from their hand/arm, even if accidental, including by the goalkeeper; or
    • - immediately after the ball has touched their hand/arm, even if accidental. (Barca's goal)
The law update also provided clarity on what constitutes handball, particularly on unnatural body position. A player is considered to have made their body unnaturally bigger when the position of their hand or arm is not a consequence of, or justifiable by, the player's body movement for that specific situation.

To me, even I might be bias, but Dumfries' intention of playing the ball with eyes closed, diving in for the header in a natural body movement for that specific situation, like his hands didn't even move when the ball hit him.
The problem with this rule, is there are some degree of subjectiveness in it, which if people are dishonest, there will be a lot of problem.

Another example, is when someone falls and uses his/her hands to land, should be considered as a consequence of, or justifiable by, the player's body movement for that specific situation.

I personally feel like it was a very competent ref, we got 1 offside goal and a potential penalty taken away too, harsh but right calls throughout the game, except Hakan did not handball at all if I saw it correctly.

For me, it was 100% a handball and I would have been livid if it wasn't called against me.

However, for the Sensi penalty we didn't get in 2019 and for all the myriad fuckeries that Barca have been part of, it just makes it feel even better.

Great game today, the players were full of grinta, reminded me of the treble team. Hope we can find some consistency now.

As for the handball, I guess it was payback for the Busquets sneak peek from 2010

I can see the reasoning of referee’s decision.

For Fati’s handball, he touched it in opponent’s area before it led to a goal, accidentally or not, it would be called.

For Dumfries’ handball, refeere saw him in motion of jumping up with hand first natually and it didn’t lead to a goal, plus even he didn’t touch it, ball was not deflected much from Fati’s header to cause dangerous play.

Not saying both judgements are correct, waiting for UEFA report.

This group might come down to our ability to get a draw against Bayern in the sixth matchday when they have nothing to play for.
