Analyzing penalty rules

I'm thinking about how similar arm positions don't automatically mean no penalty; it really depends on the specifics of each case. I should focus on explaining general rules without claiming real-time updates after 2024. It could be useful to ask if they want an analysis of a specific match incident.

I'll mention important criteria like proximity, arm positioning, and situations in the penalty area. We can discuss "consistency vs outcome" and highlight differing managerial perspectives on fairness in refereeing.Clarifying handball rules

I need to be precise about handball laws: they focus on a player's arm position relative to their own body and movement. So "almost the same" isn’t a valid criterion. I can suggest that if a defender's arm is extended away from their body, it should be penalized, while arms close to the body in a natural running motion should not be.

I'll provide quick bullet points and ask if the user wants a translation or further explanation. Also, I could mention finding a specific clip but need to be cautious about network restrictions.

I’ll acknowledge the quote, interpreting it as Kompany suggesting no penalty due to similar arm positions, and briefly state that handball is judged on unnatural positions making the body bigger, with no comparison to the opponent’s actions.Clarifying VAR intervention

I'll start by noting that VAR intervenes for clear errors. Without access to footage, I can’t make a judgment, and similarity in arm positions doesn't automatically negate a handball.

I can suggest offering quick reasons, like specific scenarios to consider. I’ll ask the user if they’d like an explanation of the rules, comparisons to similar incidents (like changes in 2024-25), or a translation.

If they share a clip or describe details like distance and arm positioning, I can provide an informed opinion. I'll keep things concise and use simple bullet points if necessary.
