At this point, the ball was still on the deck, you don't see the ball emerging until a few frames after this freeze frame. The ball was yellow making it pretty easy to spot

So what's that between Pienarr's body and his arm then?? Slightly yellower than the grass behind it with black pattern, not part of the Everton kit or part of Carragher as far as i can tell...looks like the ball to me?

The ball was bright yellow and can't be seen in this frame because its behind Mascheranos lower leg - if you had actually seen the footage then this would be totaly obvious as it can clearly be seen in the frame directly before this one - it is nowhere near Pienaar's elbow or midrift so I really have no idea what you are seeing in the picture.
