Close play but in super slo-motion it appears that the BE player made contact with the ball prior the touch of the ball by the Waccamaw keeper. Looks like it was a great game and both teams should be congratulated on a well fought match.
Looks to me like the player was making an honest go for the ball and it was contact after the fact. The ball got popped out like in any "front of goal" scuffle and someone capitalised. Tough situation for any team, but it looks like they both fought hard and BE just got lucky.
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; [it] is also what it takes to sit down and listen.
So refs are responsible for protecting keepers who don't come out with a sense of purpose? Offensive players should be penalized for making good plays and getting to balls that defenders should have gotten to but didn't? And should BE be penalized because the Waccamaw defender played the ball back into the center of the field? We've looked at it a bunch of times--no foul.
I agree fishy. Regardless of who touched the ball first, the offensive player was far too aggressive, running right through the keeper. Play should have been stopped and a yellow card issued
