Everyone unaware this is a penalty, please refer to NGLApexIx’s comment

[@CBMgoonerComps]

@NGLApexIx No it's not. The referee has to deem it intentional or in an unnatural position. There are plenty of examples of shots on target that hit the arm/hand and the referee plays on because it is not intentional. The penalty in this game was a joke.

[@MrJoopKlep]

@@CBMgoonerComps Wrong. Read the rules. Like others wrote, if it: (a) happens in the penalty area (b) was a shot on goal Its a penalty. Intent or not does NOT matter. Well it does, but only regarding the punishment for the player. Intentional = red card, unintentional = no card. IOW it was a perfectly legit penalty.

[@Leo-dt5ln]

CBMgoonerComps It is usually an offence if a player: touches the ball with their hand/arm when: the hand/arm has made their body unnaturally bigger Rule directly from the FA. There was no mentioning of “intentions”; if you used your arm to deny a shot, it’s a penalty.

@@tisfissa because the arm was close to the body, natural position, the ball was shot at a short range close to the player. I am a certified grade 5 referee in the US and they go through these things in the camps and everything but these refs seem like they forgot everything taught at those camps.

[@jayj1152]

@@tisfissa The Japanese's player's arm was by her side. In fact, she even, instinctively, moved her arm AWAY(so as not to "touch" the ball) as the Dutch player took the shot. It was not an intentional "handball". It was ball to her arm. The referee made the wrong decision. Some of the referees in this world cup are just ... Not ready to officiate at this level. Their bad decision making has cost some teams dearly.

[@bmarkrundle]

@Prince Emmanuel Nitafan Basically, the referee decided that "the hand/arm has made their body unnaturally bigger." I disagree; her arm is close to her body, not raised, and the ball has high up on the arm. It's difficult to move your upper arm completely out of the way, and she hasn't made her body unnaturally bigger in my opinion. Also, of all the angles available to FIFATV, it's strange that we only see two that don't show how close her arm was to her body.

Happens in the men's game all the time. Plus, they were on the wrong end of some terrible calls, not just that match but the prior ones. THE WORLD is complaining about the refereeing at this tourn but then people get mad when the players get mad about it? Finally, being a women trying to play football in Cameroon and survive and maybe make it out of the country is an entirely diff reality than being a Japanese girl who wants to play.

They are just exaggerating with penalties. Too generous to assign them. Match ruined by that decision IMHO.

[@HelloWorld-kt7jk]

These instances are just very hard to judge. It's easy to determine (with the VAR) whether someone is offside, but penalties are given based on the referee's interpretation of the rules. People can interpret those rules differently, however, so there will always be an argument.

[@ZachSawyer2077]

@@HelloWorld-kt7jk The point is that penalties are really big punishments so you have to be sure when you decide to assign one. Especially in situations like that, you can not have doubts and you should be sure that the foul is clear and really bad, with no possible interpretation. In this case, I think that the arm of the defender was too close to the body and there was no intention to hit the ball with the arm, so giving a penalty for this kind of foul is an exaggerated punishment.
