Had a friendly over the weekend and an incident that really got thinking.
Red corner comes in at a good height for a header. Blue keeper coming through a fair few bodies and punches the ball away. No harm done.
Second half same thing happens, punches the ball but he catches one of the attackers after clearing the ball away. I blow up as the attacker stays down holding his head and restart with a dropped ball.
I put this down as just a coming together. But it got me thinking that this could have been avoided had I pulled up the keeper for piadm the first time around.
