your link is a forum as well

This source says the same: http://www.corshamref.org.uk/law12/law12hand.htm

Deliberate handling of the ball is not a foul if the hand or arm movement is natural, rather than a contrived position.

When a player instinctively moves his hands or arms to protect his body when suddenly faced with a fast approaching ball, this should not be deemed to be 'deliberately handling the ball" - unless there is subsequent follow-on action to re-direct the ball once contact has been made.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/rules_and_equipment/4524354.stm - "If the ball hits the arm then the referee must decide whether this action was to deliberately block the ball or whether the player has raised their arms to protect themselves - especially if the ball is hit at speed."



seems like its only german sources that say you cant protect ur face..

raising arms to protect the face is deliberate handball

well I don't care anyway, I know that this call has been 100% correct

I'm off

Isnt it natural to raise ur hands to protect ur face if a ball at full speed is about to hit ur face xD
