Hi - not posted for a while but looking for some advice please
Cup game goes to penalty shoot out. Sudden death. Away team have a pen to win the game.
It’s saved but the gk is 4 yards off his line when saved. So retake and they score meaning they win the game.
Under the laws of the game I know I’m right but the pens were taking place away from any fans, management etc, there was no appeals from the pentaty taker or his team.
When celebrating they goaded the losing team, caused a huge commotion and resulted in being called busy, don’t know why I’m doing etc
I know to always follow lotg but sometimes is it worth being ‘flexoble’ To keep the peace and match control? Should I have ignored the gk off his line? There would have been no surprises.
