His arms were going downwards. If he had held them up, he might have been penalised for that. His arms were only up be the SAME amount as the French player in front of him. They put their arms up as part of jumping up, and then put them down again. That is the natural positioning of arms. The ball did get past his hand. It was deflected downwards to his foot.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
In the shot taken from above his hand clearly moves down towards the ball, it was not static and did not look like natural movement to me.

Both arms of BOTH players were going down as part of the process of having jumped. His left arm was up and out, by the same amount as the French player in front of him.

Many disagree with you..
Quote:
The consensus in the BBC studio seems to be that Croatia were very hard done by and having seen another couple of replays, I’m very much inclined to agree. Perisic had an impaired view and it seemed very, very harsh of referee Nestor Pitana to decide, on the back of repeated viewings, that the handball was deliberate. Oh VAR, you were doing so well up to this point in the World Cup and now you’ve let us down in the final.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
We will just have to disagree on this, personally I think these Croatians are very smart operators and he knew exactly what he was doing.
Not bad from Pogba.

He was doing a brilliant impersonation of Karius.

I think France were deserved winners of the cup overall though.

Yes indeed as they have probably the strongest squad of the tournament but also you need the rub of the green as well which they had.
