World's World Cup: The most blatant handball penalty not given
Watch Bruna of Equatorial Guinea casually pick up a ball in full view of the world when it is in play. Incredibly, the referee Gyoengyi Gall from Hungary and her referee crew miss it altogether or chose to ignore it completely.
This incident took place in a Group D match against Australia in the 15th minute when Collette McCallum sends in a cross which Lila Khamis flicks onto the upright and as the ball rebounds back into play, Bruna picks it up and carries it in her hand for a couple of seconds before releasing it.
