Mostly agree bit of a stretch to say Keane's 'handball' was anything like Murray's.......would have been a very tough decision. Bruno fouls in the box a lot but usually gets away with it, this time it was just too blatant (also think he was retaliating to the push on him just before, but against the wrong player). Daft from him because he didn't need to do it and his reaction at the end will have been mostly annoyance with himself I reckon.
Murray's hands were in front of his body (face) and had they not been there the ball would have hit his face, Keane's hands/arms were out to the side and whilst they were hit from a deflection they still impeded the flight of the ball towards the goal. yes it would have been harsh but based on the Murray 'precedent' it has to be a penalty. it was daft but he was wound up, Rooney got away with a few of those
