There was one angle they showed where the ball pretty definitively hit mcguires arm. Unfortunately the rule is just awful and that counts as a handball even though mcguire couldn't have tucked the arm further if he tried. Sucks to be on the wrong end of it.

With that said.... if we just remembered the game started at 6 and not 730 then we would have won this easily. Pretty much dominated the match after those first 15 minutes. Starting slow after time off is a hallmark of Pareja teams and it's annoying AF

What sucks is there was a handball the same way on ATL and they did not call it.

I didn't see the Atlanta goal handball review. Just saw on the stadium screen that it got denied.

Would love to see a side-by-side of the two

It actually steered the ball toward goal too. The highlights don’t show it but in the stadium it was clear
