However he didn’t kick the ball away and his approach to the referee seemed controlled… odd sin binning
That make 2 people

If you play it frame by frame you can see a couple of his fingers bent on the ball when grounded. The reason why it shoots forwards a bit rather than straight upwards I presume.
Strange but had a few conversations today and all said you can see his fingers on the ball.
Definitely an odd sin binning though. Was very quick to send him and not even entertain a word from the player at all.
Let’s hope we don’t have many more controversial moments.
Might be my perspective but most weeks we seem to be on wrong end of the refs whistle. Not sure why because other teams lately seem to be trying to wrestle and slow us down. It appears we are trying to play SL pace in patches but the refs aren’t reffing to the same they would a SL match and tend to be allowing more laying on and messing about. The players recently seem to be getting frustrated they aren’t allowed quick plays.
