There is something to say, there is something to say. As a Real Madrid fan, I admit that in this national derby, Real Madrid profited more from the referees. For example, Chu Ameni can actually give a red card when he is defending against a single shot. But specifically when it comes to Chu Ameni's handball in the penalty area, perhaps many people are too harsh in the referee's penalty. The controversy over this ball is that since VAR has intervened, it means that the ball has been determined in one round and can be awarded a penalty. In this case, the referee will generally correct his or her penalty. But after watching the video, the referee decisively maintained the original judgment and determined that this was not a handball.

In fact, although there are clear regulations on the penalty for handball in the penalty area, the referee must grasp and determine the specific situation of the specific scene. I know that many people are disgusted with the five words "can be judged or not" - what does it mean to be judged or not? If you commit a foul, you will have to be sentenced. How can there be so many ambiguous things?

But in fact, in football games, many situations are very complicated, and they can be judged or not, sometimes it depends entirely on the referee's understanding of this detail. Therefore, sometimes punishment is not objective, but subjective. Note that the subjective thing mentioned here does not mean deliberately or deliberately blowing the whistle, but rather self-judgment of specific issues based on one's own understanding.

Regarding this handball, many people pointed their finger at the referee's denial of VAR. But technology is dead, and people live. The final penalty is decided by the referee. Personally, I think the referee's penalty is absolutely fine. Of course, if another referee is changed, it is possible to give a penalty, which involves the issue of understanding the ball.

So, this is a penalty kick that can be judged or not.

If you still insist that Chu'améni's handball must be awarded, then please award the 2024 European Cup championship trophy to Germany.

Of course, this is a bit extreme and exaggerated. Even if Germany could enter the semi-finals at that time, it is still questionable whether they could defeat France and England. But you sure know what I want to say.

Right, it is Kukurelia's handball.

To be honest, Kukurelia's handball at that time was much more obvious than Chu Ameni's. Although he must have done it unintentionally, his arms sag naturally and were at a certain distance from his body. The ball hit his hand was indeed stopped.

The referee determined that this ball was not a penalty kick. Perhaps his understanding was that Kukurelia did not intentionally and did not deliberately expand his defense area. So the question is, if Kukurelia can be identified like this, then Chu Ameni can do it even more.

In fact, afterwards, many people decided that Kukurelia's ball should be a penalty kick when they reviewed the game. Germany fought at home and suffered the referee's loss. In fact, in the 2024 European Cup, before the quarterfinals, Spain and Germany were the best players. Many people think that whoever wins the two teams will win the championship. This is a final that will be held in advance. Therefore, it is a pity that Germany withdrew in this way.

But the fait accompli cannot be changed. If Kukurelia's ball is also judged or not, then from the perspective of understanding, perhaps the inclination of the penalty kick will be greater, and it will be much larger.

I do not deny that Real Madrid has made a profit from the referee, but specifically when it comes to Chu Améni's handball, I definitely think the referee's penalty is not a problem. Although, if you change the referee, you may give a penalty.
