Only in the eyes of a few. The majority don't see it as a foul, but see a kick on the calf. If that's a foul, the game gets stopped every ten seconds.

OrangeRab 2,910 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 What about the contact Maeda makes to Cantwell’s face. Would be soft but technically I believe that’s a foul? If we’re going to win this league it will be by the tightest of margins. We can’t afford to be the wrong side of these 50/50s. They are fully aware of this too btw. Stubbs getting reeled out in the media this week. Their players surrounding and pressurising the ref. A few 50/50s here and there, a few extra minutes of added time. These are the differences that translate into points. Straight-Edge-Loyal and Bears 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
five stars 1,711 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 We really need a camera angle from behind the players to know for sure. It looks like Dessers foot is not placed directly in front of their players, which would be a foul. It's to his side and in the natural position you'd expect it to be in running beside soneone. The reason he kicks Dessers as he swings his leg outwards into Dessers path. So he is impeding Dessers not the other way around.

Bears 794 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Watching the vid in the OP, the defender twists his left foot outwards for no reason other than to catch the attacker's foot. Goal should stand. Straight-Edge-Loyal 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the definition of that rule Impeding the progress of an opponent means moving into the opponent’s path to obstruct, block, slow down or force a change of direction when the ball is not within playing distance of either player Note the part in bold which certainly was not the case SeparateEntityMyArse 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
