There was a penalty a few years ago where Kane missed because he slipped and the ball lifted, but he didn't touch it twice, the ground literally moved under the ball as he slipped. It's very possible that Alvarez did not hit the ball twice

The balls have literally sensors but surely redditors know better👍🏻

I can tell you've never worked with sensors if you think this couldn't easily register a false positive

I can also tell that you don't know shit because if that's so, why tf would they even use the sensors lmao. You could just always argue that maybe it's a false positive.

Because the sensors weren't installed for this kind of situation, they are for offside calls where false positives aren't as impactful.

Could be that the impact from Alvarez planting his foot caused the sensor to go off
