The ball was between his arms making contact with both his gloves. That counts as control under the rules
Challenge can mean that Turkish call or jumping in the air interfering with a keeper trying to catch the ball
Regardless, the mere presence of contact implies a lack of “clear and obvious error”
A goalkeeper is considered to be in control of the ball with the hand(s) when:
the ball is between the hands or between the hand and any surface (e.g. ground, own body) or by touching it with any part of the hands or arms except if the ball rebounds from the goalkeeper or the goalkeeper has made a save
holding the ball in the outstretched open hand
bouncing it on the ground or throwing it in the air
A goalkeeper cannot be challenged by an opponent when in control of the ball with the hand(s).
Learn the rules guys before you complain about referees endlessly
Compensated for the drought by scoring four
Seethe and cope-nhagen
It’s over now but where did 5 mins even come from
Refs tried their best to let them back in it, Fergie time and all but brave Copenhagen held on! Well done.
Goodbye United! Another crap year! Thank you, come again!
The way that United players behaved with the referee today was disgraceful. So much dissent and drama from especially Maguire and Fernandes.
Surely UEFA have got to investigate this. Respect towards referees is the need of the hour
Galaxy brain Copenhagen fans. They know that the more they throw bottles, the longer Fernandes would delay. Yet they continue throwing bottles 😂
Didn’t that hit Maguires hand first? And wasn’t that a push from Varane first? And what could he do about that?
What the hell. Farcical decision. Gift to United. Whenever they need help referees are always there.
United are such sore losers aren’t they? Every time they lose, they blame the referee
Karma for United after getting virtually every call going their way this season
Well done Copenhagen considering they were playing against the referee all game
Bruno really needs to respect the referees decision. Asshole in his face for every fucking thing
Learn how to control your players instead of influencing the referees
Can’t believe Klopp is so effective in his remarks that he not only influenced Prem refs but also CL refs to conspire against the mighty United!
Martin Tyler sounds 99% dead with a bad cold
Nah not for me. Contact was minimal
Both players are side by side and the ball is ahead of both of them. Both players can compete with upper-body contact and use their strength to win the ball. Never a pen.
Maybe a foul in basketball, but not in football where shoulder-to-shoulder duels have always been allowed.

Almost a repeat of his solo goal against Chelsea
Didn’t realise Klopp was the referee
