The confusion isn't over whether Limbach got the prep, that's pretty obvious. The problem is that it looks like Limbach attacks into Dumitrescu's guard, however I suspect that it wasn't conclusive on the video so rather then risk the wrong call, abstain. Good call imo.
If you were the ref though, and you weren't sure, and you had so many people just waiting for your call, it makes sense for him to say no touch. in my opinion, giving them another shot was fair, instead of risking a biased ref.
The commentator is right, there is no excuse to say "abstention". If you see again the image there is a limbach's attack on the dimitrescu's prepation. Touch for Limbach.
I don't think much of the commentating; is he himself an FIE Sabre referee, or does he perhaps have a computer program that can preside Sabre, I wonder? And the exact same thing did not happen in the last two phrases; far from it.
limbach im a limbach lol

The commentator is right. Limbach hit twice the same way into the Romanian's preparation. HIs point was up in the air both times.

Beim dritten Treffer geht der linke aber früher los. Müsste eigentlich sein Angriff sein.

:46 touch was FOR SURE Limbach's! I don't get why the ref is calling it off....I've seen him direct before and he is a good director though!
