If that's all she did I don't think I would have said anything to the player at that moment unless I knew her as the type who could be talked down. Would have definitely not gone to the coach. Agree the discussion did go on way too long, should have moved away when he gave you the late whistle BS. IMO a coach loses a lot of credibility when he starts in with that and I don't ever discuss the timing of my whistle with a coach, the only thing I say is that the call was correct, period. IMO there's no way to win a late whistle discussion.
