The Ref Stop
Goalkeeper spills it then briefly regains possession before he's challenged by the Bristol City attacker. Good call for me - don't think it'll be long before you see Ruebyn Ricardo in the middle of a Premier League match.
 
The ball wouldn't jump like that if the goalkeeper didn't have a hand on it.

The goalkeeper is holding his head, maybe there was a follow through as well. Can't tell from that angle and distance.

Slowing the clip down I see a careless lunge from the Bristol City player for the ball resulting in contact with the keepers body.

Not sure what caliber bullet was used to make contact with the keepers head!!
 
There was contact with the head with the toe of the boot. Also contact with body with the studs. Not a great deal of force as the foot was moving upwards but enough to make this a reckless tackle at a bare minimum for me. Goal keeper control is irrelevant for me as the tackle on its own is a CRUEF foul.

I have no conviction ... Looking at the clip (and this) again I do see reckless. This was the linesman spotting this. The ref initially signalled goal.
