City claimed a penalty: “It's not James's hand”

Moments after the disconsolate withdrawal of De Bruyne, due to injury, Manchester City claimed a hand from Reece James in the Chelsea area. It was the 60th minute, and a shot on goal from Sterling slammed into the Chelsea side's arms. The players of Pep Guardiola's team surrounded the Spanish referee Mateu Lahoz claiming a penalty, but the referee saw nothing punishable.

This was analyzed by Iturralde González, an analyst for AS and SER, at Carrusel Deportivo. “The Chelsea player has both arms down. Even if it hits your hand, it can never be a hand. That is not rebound. If the arm is extended at the beginning and bounces behind the chest, it may be, but in this case the arms are in a natural position. It's not James' penalty. “

The VOR room (with the also Spanish Hernández Hernández as VAR referee) reviewed the play but did not see anything punishable and they did not notify Mateu Lahoz.
