Hi,
I had a u14 game today. Right from the start it was an end to end game. I am a referee who likes to play I don't stop for every little contact. As the game progressed the players started getting agitated that I'm not calling those fouls. In the second half I gave a free kick in the attacking third and the player that got fouled and the player that fouled both squared up and starting Pushing each other. I immediately run between them and pushed them apart. 2 yellow cards were given.
Now my question.
Could this situation have been avoided if I gave ABIT more fouls.
Should I change my refereeing style and give out more free kicks even for the little kicks that have little to no impact.
Thanks
