And why does the fact it touches a defender not apply because he's not deliberately trying to play the ball? If it hits his arm in that situation, they will say he was deliberately playing the ball, but if its his side he isnt? And how is a defender trying to put himself in a position to defend the ball coming in, NOT deliberately trying to make contact with the ball? Isnt it the very reason he's running back?
The application of the rules are nonsensical.... I fully understand why Conte went ballistic.

Managers are under incredible pressure to produce instant results - Conte is third in the league and top of his Champions League group, and yet there are widespread calls to sack him.....

Otherwise why have an exception for deflections at all?
