Seeing a lot of folk in this thread who have clearly never played the game. No intent in that whatsoever and to get that high up you need to use your arms like that for momentum. Rubbish call from the ref.

Intent has zero bearing on whether or not it was a foul. If a player mistimes a challenge and catches another player it's a foul even though they didn't mean it. If he has to use his arms to get that high he's leaving the referee with a decision to make if he then catches an opponent in the face.

You don't get a free pass just because you're young and it's your debut.
