Absolutely valid and relevant question. I can't imagine any referee disallowing the goal and insisting they take the FK because he's "not allowed to play advantage on a RC" - which I think does call the decision to bring play back into question.Here is a hypothetical. What would the referee have done if the shot had gone in?
What would the comments here be? Great advantage right?![]()
However it's an easy sell in this case, so you can't blame him for going for that, even though it did essentially give them two chances from a single foul.
