West Brom to write to FA after Heggebo handball ban upheld on appeal
West Brom's appeal failed, so Aune Heggebo serves a two-match ban for "successful deception of a match official" after scoring with his hand at Norwich. The club argued the ball deflected off the goalkeeper, giving Heggebo "less than 0.1 of a second" to react. They will write to the FA seeking clarification on how players can reasonably respond in similar situations.
