I was behind the shot in the East Greens and it was going towards the goal. However with the angle it would of been difficult to tell if it was going in. (Remember Freddy against Huddersfield? a couple of year ago)
The point of the matter is that even if it wasn't on target, it could of hit the woodwork and bounced anywhere, a defender could of cleared it straight to a Southend player, who would of had the job of putting it in an empty net from 30 odd yards, or it could of gone out for a goal kick, or been cleared to safety, or bobbled around and gone anywhere.
The point of this is that whichever way you look at it, the handball prevented a clear cut goal scoring opportunity whether the shot was on target or not.
