Yeah it's ridiculous how biased he is. It seemed that way right from the get go but as the match has gone on he's done nothing but whinge about poor, poor Brazil.
Webb with the right call IMO.
That clearly hit his shoulder at worst. So much for the cries of conspiracies.
Please someone get Martin Keown off my tele. He's blind. Definitely harsh to book him for it but it so clearly comes off his upper arm.
Just saw it from a different angle and it looked like a handball to me.
Keown making a show of himself here..
All his calls has been spot on so far.
There you go, straight off the arm. Good decision Webb. Wow, the biased commentary is disgusting.
It hits off the inside of his upper arm. Why won't the commentator's acknowledge this?
It was the linesman who made the decision.
Wish Keown would feck off. Was glad this was on the BBC for a while until he started talking...
Feck that. Most refs would buckle under the pressure. Not Webb
I know I know, I'm chuffed to be honest. The one good thing England sent to the World Cup!
He didn't deserve to score for that crap finish Hulk
Its Hulk. It would be an outrage if he scored at all.
Blatant yellow for Gustavo. Knee in the back. Cynical foul
How is hand ball shocking? Brazil will score again, don't worry.
People always underrate referees from their leagues due to their perceived bias. I have yet to see a Portuguese referee at an international game and people on Portuguese forums not questioning "how the hell is possible!!"
Well played by Webb for me , correct decision.
No it wasn't, it came off of his bicep. Definitely a handball.
Evra the ballboy
Clear handball. He used his upperarm to keep the ball in place. It was also a lucky/unintended finish with his knee.
Don't think either of these teams will be troubling the engraver.
Easy handball decision, mates.
Howard Webb. World class today so far.
Yellow for Evil Nani
Webb is an exceptional referee.
Rough challenge there by Gustavo.
Yea I don't think it was much of a foul but he did it cynically because he wanted to stop play 'cos a Brazilian was down at the time.
Upper arm is handball. It was definitely the correct decision.
Chile look to me like they are getting a foothold
I think most officials would choke at that moment, making a decision against the World Cup hosts like that.
Brazil have had their fair share of shit decisions going their way this World Cup. Correct call or not, I say Webb deserves some praise.

I think that was Hulk's goal.
That was a hand ball.
Rather pointless sliding in then, was never getting anywhere near the ball
Gustavo's been really poor.
Harsh rules. two bookings in the World Cup means being suspended.
Very good one. Hulk is so gash as well.Its Hulk. It would be an outrage if he scored at all.
looking at the replay hulk connection was pretty accidental, fluky goal tbh if it had counted
