The Kos goal... 93rd minute...
OK, I can understand it not being handball.
But surely it was offside... Chamberlain kicked it... Kos was in front... and basically on the goal line...
Surely offside and easy for the AR, no?

Just watched it on motd2 wasn't offside as kos kicked the ball & chamberlain kicked him. Also not handball as it bounces up and hits his hands goal stands.
 
The TV slo-MO has conclusively shown that Oxlade Chamberlain didn't get the touch and that the ball actually gets kicked by Kos (albeit onto his own hand) and ends up in the back of the net.

My first reaction was that it was offside though. ;) :)
 
No, it definitely touched both players
I don't see how it couldn't have been offside though.
As for DHB...well that's tricky. The argument could be made that the arms were in an unnatural position. I'm really fencesitting on this, but I feel like I would have called it had I seen it in a game.
 
I'd not be calling that handball and remember a similar last minute equaliser on a Sunday morning once.
If you're disallowing it you better have the balls to also caution the striker, there is no inbetween
