It was the arm on his farside not his nearside. If it had hit his nearside arm then no penalty. It stopped the cross reaching the six yard box.

There's no rule about stopping crosses reaching the 6 yard box.

The exact wording is:

  • deliberately touches the ball with their hand/arm, for example moving the hand/arm towards the ball

  • touches the ball with their hand/arm when it has made their body unnaturally bigger. A player is considered to have made their body unnaturally bigger when the position of their hand/arm is not a consequence of, or justifiable by, the player’s body movement for that specific situation.

He didn't deliberately touch the ball with his arm, and the position of his arm was a natural consequence of turning away from the ball being hit at him.
