As long as the ball is inbounds it doesn't matter where the player is.

So that takes me back to the OP.  "Was this an asshat move?"

If he was dancing the sideline.......He was keeping the ball in play. Ala the jump in the endzone feet off the ground batting back a punt.

Doesn't explain him doing in the crease though.

Dumbass game.

The first video is him doing it with a 1 goal lead late, and the feeling is he was just showing off, which is why the guy nails him (hard) almost immediately. I read that player may be suspended for a year, which leads to this part of your comment:

Rick, shoulder to shoulder contact CAN be a foul if the player isn't playing the ball.  There can be a foul if two players are going for a header (seems an apt analogy in this case) and one shoulders the other off his chance.  If, as you said, Kerlon is not controlling the ball then is it not essentially a situation where two guys are going for a header?


Yep, but I was leaving things to the ref's discretion.  The 'seal' is putting himself in a dangerous position; the ref needs to protect players from harm, but I don't consider bruises harm  Wink

I've gone to find myself.  If I get back before I return, keep me here.

Loophole.

Asshat move.

If it's me and after seeing this once maybe twice, at some point when no one's looking I'm popping the seal in the sack and saying don't ever do this again.

I just had a golf lesson from a guy that refs college and pro soccer (MLS), I should have asked him about this and his opinion. Yet another wasted opportunity.

I'd love to hear what he has to say.  Assuming he's not from Central America that is.
