It was an extremely well played and aggressive match until (a very frustrated) Joey Demare let a kick out on the RV keeper when he had possession of the ball. I am a referee and in my opinion, he should have recieved AT LEAST a yellow. However, he had already had one yellow during the game and I think the ref was afraid to throw the second. A kick to the keeper with no consequences always sends the game into overly aggresive dangerous play.
Seems like I have seen more and more of these type plays on the keeper in the last several years - but betcha by golly wow you let the keeper come out and take down a forward while (wink wink) going for the ball and the card will fly. Seems the "protection" for dangerous plays on keepers is a thing of the past. I guess it will take somebody getting seriously hurt before the refs clamp back down.
