This is the incident. Cant get the video to post but here are some captures. Occurred right in front of AR2

Different incident I believe. Sterling not involved in what I saw. Video too big. Ill try to clip and post it

Sure looked to me like Lamela was into Mendy's back to the point of a forearm into the back of Mendy's head. Looked like Mendy didnt appreciate it and spun taking a swipe at the guy (Lamela) behind him. Min of a yellow to me and I could care less about either team. Could argue red, but likely...

I just turned it on and saw the replay. Can anyone tell me why Mendy didnt get a card for attempting to strike Lamela in the 92nd min? Wow. Right in front of AR2 and it was a clear swing/attempt to strike that missed

Same here in the states. Mechanics I've been taught are to keep yourself open to referee. Gk signalled with right hand. Flag always on side closest to referee.

I always cover this and ball on far side of goal over the goal line. "I'll make eye contact on almost every stoppage. I'll get deep in the corners because I know it's hard to see who it is out off of from 50 yards away. Same with OB on opposite side of goal. Just flag it and if you dont know...

Seeing it at full speed change anyone's mind either way? https://www.nbcsports.com/video/cardiff-citys-joe-ralls-receives-red-card-sliding-tackle-v-tottenham

I would say VC and rather than deeming it a trip, I could go for "striking" the other player. He has done it deliberately using his body and legs rather than using an arm, There is no chance of playing the ball. Clear intent to strike the player and bring him down stopping the attack.. VC...

Here's a good hypothetical one for discussion. Thrower doing the normal (feet right on or very near the line. For this lets say on the touchline). Defender standing about 1 foot away (let's assume deliberately not giving distance). Thrower attempts throw. Ball STILL IN HANDS in a normal...

OP indicated the AR stated afterward that the ball did not enter FOP so the ball was never in play for a handball to be committed. Based upon the OP, it is a re-throw following the YC. Now if the ball in fact did enter the FOP and the player failed to respect the required distance...

Winner = YC retake for not respecting the required distance and retake since the ball did not enter the FOP He has to give 2 yards to the thrower. From the LOTG An opponent who unfairly distracts or impedes the thrower (including moving closer than 2 m (2 yds) to the place where the throw-in...

What??? Take a goal away from attacking team because of an offense by the keeper? This will create a mess and is not correct. Hard to say from this video if he was off the line. Probably a step off. Here is the thing. Referee is part of the field of play. IF you deem the keeper to have...

Was it a push/charge in the back... two angles were tough to say. One angle sure looked like it. Was attacker waiting for the contact and kicked his legs back? I think so but there is a charge/push in the back in my opinion. I'm good with a PK. Now for the card.... Evaluating DOGSO...

I have used a fox 40 sharx for the last 4 years as my primary which has been a great whistle and just a touch different in pitch from most other whistles to avoid field confusion at tourneys. I just dropped the cash on a Valkeen this season and must say. I LOVE that whistle! Definitely too...

If I'm CR and we get a quick in/out flag and this has happened, I'm generally blowing the whistle as the AR brings the flag down in front and switches hands. Our basic training included switching down and in front if necessary (never over head) which I would think implies that switching is...

Thanks!!! Most all games around here are 3-ref systems with NAR's then. We only use a NAR when an official no-shows. CAR's are not allowed to call offside, fouls or direction of kick's/throws. They only tell us in-bounds/out sounds like we are spoiled over here :)

These are referees functioning as an AR. I think that means CAR? if I understand the acronym correctly. A 3 official team is a huge boost when everyone is on the same page. A centered a conference tournament championship on Saturday with a GREAT crew. It was a highly competitive game and it...

Pre-game with my AR's. Offside, boundaries are your priority. Be sure to wait and see if a player is going to play, interfere or gain an advantage. Better to be slow and right than fast and wrong. I know that a deliberate play by a defender is hard to see from the side. If you aren't sure...

I referee on astro quite a bit. Many of our high schools have astro and we have a VERY large sports complex that has MANY astro pitches both indoor and outdoor. They also have numerous baseball fields that are all turf which they turn into soccer/football fields when they have an all-turf...

I have seen newspaper and cardboard stuffed into socks attempting to make it look shin guards (I disallowed all). I played in an indoor soccer tournament where I saw a GK from another team wearing full leg baseball catcher shin guards (we were going to refuse to play if he was going to be...
