I defense of Oliver, the disallowed goal, his big toe was deemed off.

And I don't know how they isolated his toe vs heel of Germans but whatever.

I think FIFA need to revisit this handball. Especially when the offender is within 3 or 4 ft of kick. I get the whole "natural position" but having ur arm down at side while sprinting back isn't feasible. I don't like these calls when ball is kicked into the hand/arm which is inadvertently there.

Stuart Atwell is just as incompetent, I really think if it takes that long to make a decision then the ref on the field at least has to look at it. Offsides down to toes v heels, is absolutely ridiculous and not in the spirit of the law at all, nevermind that how you can even really tell?

I don't think the handball was intentional and I don't think it affected the flight of the ball much if anything at all. I didn't even really see German protesting for the call like that. I'm pretty sure there's already room for discretion regarding ball to hand as opposed to hand to ball, the thing is the natural position is obviously somewhat subjective.
