Hello everyone,
After reffing my first few games I’ve started to notice the things I’m not 100% about, the main one being what constitutes dangerous play, and do I give an indirect free kick?
Two examples:
1) Two players going for a bouncing ball around knee height, player A gets there before player B who also attempts to play it, Player A goes in studs up and makes a stamping motion so player B pulls out, what’s the decision here?
2) Ball around head height on the edge of the box, striker goes for the ball but before he can get there a defender comes over and intercepts (striker within playing distance) with his foot up by the strikers head, ahain striker pulls out because if he doesn’t he gets his head kicked off).
What are the correct decisions here (I’ll tell you my decision on both when I feel safe to reveal!!)
Appreciate the help and also appreciate these are specific examples but these type of moments do seem to happen a lot in the games I’ve been reffing.
Thanks in advance, all!
