I had a player land on top of the ball (unintentionally), preventing anybody else from playing it. There were appeals for obstruction and as I was not certain that this law even existed, I did not penalise. Fortunately play developed quickly and the whole incident was forgotten.
I did not remember it being mentioned on my Basic Referees' Course and after the game I consulted the Laws of the Game and found nothing. I had heard of this rule before I became qualified so I am wondering, does it actually exist?
