Handball adjudged deliberate, while Maguire's wasn't (somehow)?
Edit: Or your suggestion below that the rules are different. Which is quite possible.

Yes. The only difference could possibly be that Maguire's were in front of his body (although so were the Atletico player's). Maybe the trajectory of the ball was different but it just goes to show how ridiculous the rule is because there really is no difference.

Handball has become more subjectively contentious than offside or contact for penalties nowadays.
