If people have a problem with Americans calling soccer its name then why don't the football purists call their sport kickball?
The sport of football has been called football long before american football was introduced. Why should people who are used to calling there sport football for generations have to change the name. I belive many fans would be against a name change of their sports on both sides of the Atlantic and we have to learn to live with the way the sports are named in different countries. Football is the official name for soccer. Soccer comes from association football. Only in the USA and canada do they say soccer. The global name for football is of course football. The global name for american football is gridiron. Gridiron is a code of handball and not football. Football is a sport where players control the ball with their feet and only football does this. Football has been played for many centuries but had no official rules. The british created rules for football in 1848. After that many codes of handball arose including rugger and gridiron, none of which are codes of football. Americans will have to change their activity to gridiron as the official name.
Is it a yellow card when there is a handball?
Not automatically, no. Deliberate handling is a direct free kick (or PK) offense. If done very blatantly, as a tactical foul, then a caution would be warranted. If done to deny an opponent a goal-scoring opportunity, then a send off would be warranted. BTW: The Algerian player was a classic tactical situation described above. That was his second caution of the match.
What is Chinese Handball?
Chinese handball is a form of American handball. Different variations are played around the world. Its defining feature is that, unlike traditional handball, in Chinese or indirect handball, for a shot to be valid, the ball must hit the ground before it hits the wall. It would seem that this game, or mini variants of it, were highly popular almost worldwide in the 1950s, 1960's and 1970's. Another similar variation of the game is Wallball. (taken from Wikipedia)
Is there a advantage play when a hand ball occurrs in the penalty box?
Generally not as it has normally stopped the goalscoring opportunity and many players do stop to appeal for a penalty to the referee. Advantage can be played but the only way this would help would be if the attacking team had already put the ball in the net or if it presented a player with an open goal, however the defender is still liable to punishment if it was deliberate handball
