Answer Question-1:
Keith Hackett's verdict
Answer 1
- • Tell them to stop screaming. Stop play, get a replacement ball and restart play with a dropped ball on the six-yard line. The only way it would be a retake is if the ball had burst before hitting the goalpost.
Answer Question-2:
Keith Hackett's verdict
Answer 2
- • In the interests of the image of the game, ask the ground safety officers to remove the coach to a place away from the vicinity of the field of play and out of shouting distance of your assistant. After the game, report the matter to the authorities.
Answer Question-3:
Keith Hackett's verdict
Answer 3
• If you judge the defender has deliberately fouled the attacker by holding or pushing, award a penalty. If not, and you judge that he has impeded the attacker, it is an indirect free-kick (on the 6-yard line). Either way, show him a yellow card for an act of unsporting behaviour. It would not be a red card in these circumstances: the player can only be sent off for denying a goal if he deliberately handled the ball. In normal play he is allowed to head the ball, and so he is only guilty of unsporting behaviour
