Best I return to enjoying the game then
Is his shoulder out of its socket? Look where the elbow is in relation to the ball. It's hitting the inside of his arm. The BBC just put a clear shot of the ball cradled in the guy's arm. You're going to extraordinary lengths to try to get away from the fact it's a clear, stonewall handball and he was rightly booked by Webb.
. Haven't seen the new angle. With that one in mind, which was the only available until the end of the game, I maintain calling it clear-cut is going extreme lengths as well.How is that not a red?
Jo is beyond shit 
Red.
Worse than Nani's he was sent off for
She gets plenty of support from the back
Freaking savage Jo
I'm talking about this:
Best frame I could get, extremely bent shoulder, and the ball is in no way clearly touching the arm. Seems like a shoulder/chest catch to me. It is controversial.
Here's the one BBC showed:
No booking. Fair challenge
Don't be silly.
Some refs would have given red for that
I thought I was free of Hansen when he got the boot from MotD. Bloody Dracula's easier to get rid of.
Nani would have been off for that.
Studs up - either it's a red always or never
I think I might love Sanchez a tiny bit more.
Jo could learn from Nigel de Jong
Lucky not to be sent off for that, but yellow is probably the better call from a neutral point of few
Yep, best angle
Settles it for me, good call.
Webb had to think about that
Please can we sign Sanchez?
Scholari has one sub left? Nishimura for Webb then.
I find it hard not to hate Brazil. They're basically Chelsea, in style and personnel
That was never a red card.
Well that was ambitious.
Fair challenge? This is not tae kwon do
Should have been a red card. You can't go studs up against a goalkeeper like that.
Mcmanaman says nothing wrong with that. Fukkin twat.
#2.....
why have we got posts saying that Webb is biased towards Brazil, not even close, if he was we would not be in extra time.
Maybe they're fearing for their safety. The locals might riot and torch the studio, especially after Webb's (good) performance.
Some of you have never ever played football have you
Webb has been excellent
Compare that to the Valencia challenge. Looks even more ridiculous now.
Mcmanamanaman saying "he had to go for that" like the twat he is.
Not red. This is the right call, not Nani's, so lets not use that one as a benchmark.
He is lucky because it's Webb, but last time FIFA discussed this kind of situation they said ref was right to give red(and this was much worse than Nani's vs Madrid).
