>There are different circumstances when a player must be cautioned for unsporting behaviour, including if a player:
>handles the ball to interfere with or stop a promising attack
>handles the ball in an attempt to score a goal (whether or not the attempt is successful) or in an unsuccessful attempt to prevent a goal
It was not a yellow card-worthy handball. It was called correctly on the pitch as just a free kick with no card.
>Referees will evaluate the following when assessing whether an attack is to be considered ‘promising’:
>Speed – The player(s) is (are) moving forward with pace in their attack.
>Space – There should be green space in front of the player with the ball to dribble, pass or shoot and/or green space in front of other attackers would could receive the ball.
>Options – Either the player with the ball has options to take on a defender or has other teammates to which he could pass the ball.
>The key here is that these considerations relate to a promising attack which has a possibility of becoming a goal-scoring opportunity, and not simply every forward movement.
The Netherlands players are moving backward towards their own goal when the handball occurs.
There is no green space in front of the Netherlands player when he makes the pass. There is no green space in front of the Netherlands player who is the target of the pass when the handball occurs.
This is obviously not a promising attack. The Netherlands players are literally running backwards halfway from the goal.
