interesting one today.
ball is hooked clear from a corner towards 1 red (attacking) 1 blue (defending) on the half way line. Blue player manages to get in from of red player when red players shouts his own name at the top of his voice (for clarity, there isn't another player from either side within 20 yards of the ball). Blue player, about to control and play the ball, hears the shout and let's the ball run. Red player then laughs and says thanks mate as he runs off with the ball. I blow for an ifk which causes massive issues with the red team. absolutely certain I got this right at the time as the little laugh and comment intimated to me that he had done it on purpose and that with no one in a red jersey anywhere near the ball he couldn't have been shouting to a team mate.
starting to 2nd guess myself a little now as surely the blue player knew it was just him and the opponent so shouldn't have left the ball anyway (typing this, I know full well that's irrelevant)
