    Completely legal as he takes another two steps after stopping. It would only be an offence if he got right up to the ball and feigned...

    Yeah, I couldn't see the issue here. I guess the focus was on the keeper not saving it, but there's a clear deflection off the defender.

    31 games as referee and 10 as AR this season. On a forced sabbatical from L4 after heart surgery in 2024 - still hopeful I'll eventually...
