Basically it’s like what if Bertrand scored, took one or two steps after the ball was in the goal, and then on the following step began walking through the goal mouth. It would be irrelevant since the ball was already in the goal before that right? The same thing happened here except in a shorter time frame. He scored while his foot was still planted on the ground and then left his foot and fell forward into the goal mouth only after the ball had been in the goal. He did not leave his foot, which was outside the crease, until after the ball was already in the goal.

I believed that the goal mouth was only for a dive, when a player leaves his feet, scores a goal while both his feet are in the air, and then he lands somewhere in the goal mouth. This was not a dive at all. It was just something he did after the ball was already in the goal. At the very very least that would have 100% been a goal before any of this goal mouth nonsense. This new rule has me analyzing things like a freaking lawyer. Also why no flag if it’s this horrible forbidden zone? Was that not part of the deal all of a sudden? Refs are clueless
