I get the head injury stoppage etc, but there should be some rule that if the referee has to stop the play for a player holding his head then player has to go off for 2 minutes minimum, regardless, but more importantly check they're themselves good to carry on.
In this game, AZ player went down after a touch by Rice (barely that) and was down for about a minute holding his head. The referee eventually stops play with West Ham keeping ball, and as soon as he does, the AZ player has got back up. Didn't move a muscle until that point.
That, to me, is cheating. Completely playing the system. Knowing the game will be forced stopped.
And now a free kick given following a cross into the box by Benrahma. Very very soft especially from what was not given in the previous minutes (only watched about 10 minutes).
