Examining handball rules changes

The recent rule modifications indicate that an accidental handball before a goal isn't automatically an offense unless the scorer handles the ball. I remember in 2021, this was confirmed: goals scored after a teammate's accidental handball aren’t penalized unless the scorer is involved directly. However, if an accidental handball creates a goal-scoring opportunity, it remains relevant. I think improvements are needed, like clarifying the "unnatural" stance and setting clearer thresholds for VAR.Proposing guideline adjustments

I’m considering proposing a "t-shirt line" for handball rules around the shoulder boundary. I think some key points are: weighing "distance/time to react," defining an offense as an "arm above shoulder level," and accounting for "support arm" exceptions. Additionally, I feel a deflected ball from one's own body shouldn't be penalized unless the arm noticeably expands the body's silhouette. I might also need to clarify that not all arm touches result in penalties according to current rules. Would you like a translation or a quick summary of Hernanes' perspective on this?Key Points on Handball Offenses

I’m working on summarizing the current handball rules (IFAB's Law 12). It states that not every hand/arm touch constitutes a foul; rules typically apply to deliberate handball or if the arm makes the body "unnaturally bigger." Since 2021, a teammate’s accidental handball leading to a goal isn't automatically penalized unless the goal-scorer commits the handball.

I have suggestions for improvement, such as clarifying angles for probable fouls and setting clear reaction time metrics. Would you like a translation, a news background, or an interpretation of specific cases?
