as the fullback it was goldies responsibility and he wanted nothing to do with that high ball
Just watched it again in slow motion.
From the high kick the ball dropped 5 meters from ryan who was facing it.
The ball dropped more or less half a meter from dixon who was half turned but with 2/3 attackers pressuring dixon.
As i see it the ball was there for dixon to take, if ryan had ran in and was impeded by the attackers there would be no one at home to defend.
Ryan stayed back as the last line of defence expecting dixon to take the ball......dixon just let it bounce.
6 of one for me.
