I was looking for a rule that says how handling the ball on the line is a direct red card. I couldn't find it. You all say how there is such a rule. There probably is but I couldn't find out and it will be good if you guys find it and show it to us here.
The one I found it is the one above which says that it's a red card if a player denies the opposition a goal by deliberately handling the ball.
FIFA didn't use the word "deliberately" without a reason, did they?
I provided you the rule a couple of pages back. If you prevent a clear scoring chance, you're sent off, no matter what the offence might be. So if you handle the ball on the line, you're preventing a clear scoring chance and you're sent off.

People's interpretation of the rules often changes depending on which team they want to win Clear red card and pen, no leeway when it comes to handling offenses on the goalline, intentional or not.
