No, he used his hand. It went down to the ball and I’ve watch about every replay they showed.

Including the millisecond he had seeing it after it went over the French player's head?
Ah, I've just seen your location...
Oh dear and you are about to make a silly assumption because I actually want Croatia to win as long as it is won fairly.

Also if it was deemed as deliberate should it not have been a yellow card?
Funny, I thought the opposite, that it is such an important decision, you better be certain of your decision. I feel sorry refs. now, seems like they are too easy to blame...

You live/are in France and you support a disputable penalty: easy assumption to make. Dear!

It'll make for a better second half!

Don't get me wrong I feel sorry for the refs and handball is one of the greyest areas as we've seen on other occasions in this world cup.

I think it was a penalty. He was looking at the ball and he instinctively moved his hand down to it. I've played football and I know how easy that is to do, you don't set out to deliberately handle the ball but in the heat of the moment you can't stop yourself from doing it to avert danger.
Anyway, sport would be a lot poorer without the occasional controversy.
