So after a long wait, we reach the first open age game of the season!
Local game between two new teams, 44th minute:
. Goalkeeper long kick out of his hands
. Bit of shirt tugging from one of the two midfielders to win the header
. Award the free kick
. SMACK - The great big midfielder elbowed the short little skipper straight in the nose, knocking him down with a broken nose
. Cue the mass confrontation
. Manage to gain back control of the situation quickly, the offender walks, straight red! Bye Bye!
Why? Absolutely no need for it? The game hadn't been feisty, came from nowhere and he won the free kick anyway? Please tell me this is a rare thing to happen in open age?
