Sorry to disagree but when I went on a refereeing course, quite a few years ago now, we were told that raising your hands above your head was an unnatural position and constituted a deliberate act. I know players have to use their arms for leverage but he had both arms up above his and the French player's head. As soon as the ball hits it the ref has to give it if he sees it clearly. It's a "scruffy" way to give away a penalty, I agree, and there are plenty of other little things that occur in the area that ref's miss but it doesn't mean the ref shouldn't give them if he sees them.
