Dean Henderson's handball outside the box during Crystal Palace's FA Cup final victory over Manchester City sparked debate about the application of the "obvious goalscoring opportunity" rule.

The incident led to a tense confrontation between Henderson and Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola on the pitch.
