New Footage Confirms Handball in Neco Williams' Disallowed Goal

New video footage has emerged showing Neco Williams' arm making contact with the ball before his goal was disallowed in a match against Tottenham Hotspur, which ended in a 0-0 draw.

The incident occurred in the 67th minute when Williams scored, but video assistant referee Peter Bankes ruled it out for accidental handball. Both Williams and Nottingham Forest manager Oliver Glasner initially claimed there was no evidence of handball.

The new footage supports the VAR's decision, revealing that the ball touched Williams' left arm and then his right forearm before entering the net. However, this camera angle was not available to Bankes during the game, which may not alleviate the frustration among Forest fans regarding the ruling. The VAR's role in such decisions continues to be a topic of debate, particularly concerning the subjective nature of handball interpretations.
