Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson said the newly adopted rule was โkilling the gameโ after his team lost 2-1 by conceding a handball penalty for the winning goal. Mourinho chose not to criticize the rule for fear of collecting a fine from the Football Association, but his Newcastle counterpart had his say.
