Was there an opponent around? If so, then it's PIADM as this foul also includes putting yourself in danger. Same as dropping your head to waist height when around opponents - a foot has more 'right' to be there than a head, so the person putting the head down is at fault.Reece James of Wigan put his head in the path of the ball on the floor, referee played on. Are you punishing him for PIADM? If he were to get caught in the face, would you give it for or against him as he is putting himself in danger?
Watch this.
Some great defending, but are you giving an attacking idfk for PIADM?
(If I'm honest, I think you'd have to be as brave as the defender to do so, but the boot is not far from the head)
Thoughts:
Red card. Yellow is only when a penalty is awarded. This is IFK. But agree with playing on for the same reasons as you.Personally I'm not. I think he maintained enough distance from the opponent - and the opponent himself wasn't affected. Also, he was basically on the ground anyway.
Bear in mind this would constitute a DOGSO offence (but would be a yellow card only)
Oh damn, you're right. Of course, no triple punishment because no PK. I've thrown in an edit to show that (I don't change what I've written, but I don't like leaving misinformation in my posts unaddressed). Thanks.Red card. Yellow is only when a penalty is awarded.

The low head, if I had gone with penalising the defender it would have direct FK given wouldn’t it? Seeing as contact was made. Am
I right there?
This is the incident from the OP:
I'd give that a DFK for tripping. It was also PIDAM but tripping is a bigger offence.This is the incident from the OP:

PIDAM when contact is made is a DFK anyway. I just changed the reason to trip.Looks like he took the ball with his head so I'm not too sure it is a DFK offence. It would be safer to give though.
Imagine his head is his foot, he takes the ball cleanly, no? That's what I was saying about it not being a DFK, because it is dubious whether it is a foul (ignoring the head).Punishing blue for tripping white. Restart for tripping is DFK.
You can also choose the reason for the DFK restart to be PIDAM with contact (still punishing blue).
