It’s a stupid rule that says a goalkeeper can bounce a ball and still be considered in control of the ball.
@gj4man Because it's a sport where kicking the ball is illegal!

@bazzacollins I think the point was that the keeper has control of the ball whilst bouncing it, & you can't tackle a keeper who has control -
@gj4man I think it's legitimate to challenge for a bouncing ball, but it seems me and the FA/FIFA disagree. -
@bazzacollins would lead to lots of knee-high lunges if allowed, I think.
