I had an experienced assistant of mine tell me after my match this weekend, that when I allow for a drop ball, it must touch another player ie the kicker can’t dribble it. He said I should have awarded an indirect free kick.
After reviewing LOTG all I can see is that ‘the ball is in play once it touches the ground’, which is what my understanding was.
Is the assistant right or got it wrong?
