I would normally assume there is a different set for the hun but the explanation of why VAR was wrong in not awarding a penalty came from Willie Collum. He claimed that Scales had grabbed the Rangers player outside the box but had continued to hold him while said hun’s foot was on the line of the penalty box.
Why is that deemed ‘inside the box’. A ball is out of play only if it has completely crossed a boundary line; it is only a goal if the ball is completely over the goal line. Why is ‘on the line’ of the penalty box then considered inside?
