Based on what I saw in many games in this most recent world cup, the tendency to use hands against the person of the other team for things like pulling, pushing, and other general impeding actions and the toleration for that seem at a level that may make one wonder if the games were supposed to follow soccer rules or some new rules of their own. This kind of uncontrolled hand use or even anything close to it, does not exist in men's soccer. I think that I am accustomed to a soccer where there is much more sensitivity to the use of hands to even just touch the person of the other team, which I often missed in this world cup.
