The foul isn’t a 50/50 imo. It’s so obviously a foul that I honestly can’t understand anyone saying otherwise. The ball out of play and the offside are much more 50/50 calls

You see you start with IN YOUR OPINION. You’re biased to start and then the fact that many professionals say different things should perhaps make you realize your opinion is not universally shared.

When multiple neutral professionals say it’s a close call then just maybe your starting position of it’s a clear and obvious foul and there’s no debating it is perhaps maybe flawed?

I know my opinion isn’t universally shared. That’s what I’m trying to figure out. Every time I watch the goal I try to see how it isn’t a foul and I can’t. He used Gabriel’s neck as a springboard

You could, for example, listen to some of the people. Stop looking at stills and look at the video. I know some people are saying Gabriel ducks before the arms make much contact. So the argument is that he was already too low and then exaggerated the minor contact to go down knowing he couldn’t get it

There are other explanations but that’s the one I’ve heard most. The stills arsenal fans insist on showing, don’t show that of course.
