I think his arms are vertical. However, the endline look clearly shows his upper body leaning forward out of his vertical ... FOUL.

OK, but what about the defender's arms? I would not say those are within his own vertical space.

To me, the arms are a non-issue. I have B's body/torso moving forward at the time of contact, which is before arm contact.

That's what I saw in the very first replay, full speed.

They may be vertical with his body, but leaning forward like that they're not perpendicular to the ground, that's for sure.
