Handling the ball It is an offence if a player:
• deliberately touches the ball with their hand/arm, including moving the hand/arm towards the ball
• gains possession/control of the ball after it has touched their hand/arm and then
• scores in the opponents’ goal
• creates a goal-scoring opportunity
•  scores in the opponents’ goal directly from their hand/arm, even if accidental, including by the goalkeeper"

Which of these happened?

Seem to recall that PowerSpurs was all for this ridiculous new handball rule so can hardly whinge when it goes against them.
