When the GK is in a battle for the ball, FIFA allows the use of the hands. I'm not sure where I come out here, but saying we can't judge intent, IMHO, doesn't really support the argument. No, we don't have to judge intent on a hand ball. We don't have to know the intent to observe the action. If the hand moved toward the ball - hand ball.
Old habits die hard.
Inorder to judge misdirect you must establish intent. FIFA's intent was to do away with the time-wasting tactic of playing the ball to a GK's hands and then restarting an attack. GK on goal line with teammates on either post. Shot on goal, at post, trapped by defender's feet. GK falls on ball.
