Fair enough. Here's a snippy though. Pretty sure that was going in. To be honest I'm not aggrieved at the decision at all just want to make sure I'm calling these right if it happens to me.to nitpick, on a shot we aren’t talking about DOGSO, but about DOG.
So the real Q is whether, but for the handling, the ball was going in the goal. For those angles, I can’t tell if it was on target or how close the GK was to making a save had it gone through. Certainly enough doubt (at least from these angles) that I would be shocked to see it as red in a friendly.
I'm sure we had a similar thread the other day and the resolution was that it wasn't whether as a ref we thought it was going in, but at the point of shooting was it a gso.to nitpick, on a shot we aren’t talking about DOGSO, but about DOG.

He looked to try and play advantage but in the end did not, hence the pen was awardedI thought the red was downgraded to a yellow because the ref played advantage (as per Law 12.3)?
The red card offence is denying the opposing team a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity by a handball offence (except a goalkeeper within their penalty area)I'm sure we had a similar thread the other day and the resolution was that it wasn't whether as a ref we thought it was going in, but at the point of shooting was it a gso.
Was it a OGSO? Yes.
Was it denied? Yes.
For me it's red.
Why would anyone play advantage in the box like that though is baffling.I thought the red was downgraded to a yellow because the ref played advantage (as per Law 12.3)?
Because advantage is football is dumb, this isn't actually a referee playing advantage. This is a referee waiting to see if an advantage (which in this case would specifically and only be a goal) accrues - then when it doesn't, he "chooses not to play advantage" and gives the penalty.Why would anyone play advantage in the box like that though is baffling.
imo in the circumstances, its good refereeingWhy would anyone play advantage in the box like that though is baffling.
For me it's red as stopping a goal in a freindly is, in my opinion, worse than in a "real match" due to the fact there's nothing on the outcome.
I wish the FA would send me this document called "what the game expects".
I cannot get a copy from anybody!
Cheers. I understand in this situation where he was waiting to see if the second shot went in.
