Was it a Premier League game a few seasons back? GK got the ball, but punched the player, and was deemed to have been reckless/dangerous? |  |

That's how I would have viewed it but it seems the refs think it's ok to punch someone in the head as long as you get the ball first. |  |

1. He didn't punch him in the head.
2. The Canadian guy was offside.
So, not a penalty. |  | | |

Quite right too. Players are too soft nowadays, should be able to take an accidental punch to the head. |  |

I seem to remember Portugal conceding a penalty against France in a similar situation. EURO 2020. | | | |

Think the Man Utd keeper from a couple seasons ago (sorry, complete forgotten his name) took out a couple of players whilst punching the ball away and the ref awarded a pen. |  | | |

That is as maybe but the Bosnian keeper punched the ball not the Canadian player. Plus the guy was offside so even if he'd headbutted him and then given him an uppercut to the ballbag it still wouldn't have been a penalty. | | | |

So clear.
Ball first, no intent. Clear as day. No foul. | |
