I like that English commentators still take shots at Sarri's time at Chelsea despite finishing 3rd behind two all time teams and winning the Europa League. Crap manager him.
 


The handball on Veltman obviously. And I'm not sure but I think playing advantage and going back to send someone off isn't allowed.

I explained above how it makes sense. You’ll have to dig out that sending off rule as it doesn’t make any sense to me if true.

“No you can’t have that advantage even though with or without it I’ll be sending that chap off.”

I don't know that it makes sense, I just thought that was the rule.

Also the handball was still a ridiculous decision.
 
Why? It hit his arm in the box? Those are the rules now.
No they aren't. They very much are not the rules now. That's the rule for attackers. For defenders it is more nuanced to avoid attackers smashing it off defenders arms intentionally. In this case his arm is down, he doesn't move toward the ball and it is struck hard enough to make getting out of the way difficult. Not a handball, not a sending off, not a penalty and probably not a point for Chelsea.
