When I was relatively fresh back to reffing, I had one of these that would have been a real doozy. G19. forward was in OSP when the GK punted the ball, which went more up than out. First players in the vicinity completely miss, and ball bounces high on the artificial turf. That OSP player ends up being first to the ball, no more than halfway out to the halfway line. I should have flagged, but the R (who was not particularly strong) would have thought I was nuts—if he ever even saw the flag—and I froze and din’t flag. I don’t think anyone else on the field even considered the possibility that there was an OS issue.
