New video footage has emerged showing Neco Williams' arm making contact with the ball during the Nottingham Forest match against Tottenham Hotspur. The incident occurred in the 67th minute, when Williams scored, but the goal was disallowed due to an accidental handball after a review by video assistant referee Peter Bankes.

Williams and Forest manager Oliver Glasner argued post-match that there was no evidence of handball. However, the new footage appears to confirm the VAR's decision, igniting further debate among fans and commentators.

Key details:

• The footage shows the ball hitting Williams' left arm and then his right forearm before entering the net.
• The camera angle used in the new footage was not available to Bankes during the game, which may prolong the frustration among Forest supporters regarding the VAR intervention.
• Bankes based his decision on the movement of Williams' shirt, indicating contact with the ball.

Former midfielder Danny Murphy commented on Match of the Day, expressing skepticism about the decision to disallow the goal, stating, "It's a really tricky one... But is it clear and obvious? No. That's the answer."

The refereeing body now known as Pro Ref stands by the decision, expressing irritation over how the incident has been portrayed, especially in light of Williams' firm denial that he handled the ball. Williams stated, "I’ve seen all the images... It didn’t hit my arm."

Despite the new evidence, the incident highlights the ongoing challenges and controversies surrounding VAR technology in football. Nottingham Forest has yet to provide a comment on the situation.
