Another clear handball missed by the officials when Lacazette handled in the air leading to Arsenal taking the lead.

I'm not convinced he actually touched it before it glanced off the defenders head.

Certainly wasn't clear, and after many replays I'm still not convinced it hit his hand.

Football will need to use the cricket equivalent of hotspot for that in the VAR process.  Although cricket doesn’t use that as part of DRS these days.

Watched this again, shouldn't a fall/dive follow contact or is it OK to start diving prior to the contact? 
If he had continued to run towards the ball Xhaka would probably have brought him down, but why did he start diving headfirst 'over' his outstretched leg?
Would have been hilarious if Xhaka had pulled his leg away completely.

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
