I don't know if wider would be a requirement, but having some either back or front on the defender would give the necessary view to determine whether said defender got LGP.
Sure and I agree...after watching the replay and the kids reaction, I think the C might have made the call on the play.....which was contrary to my thinking before....You also hear two whistles, I don't know if it's a "double-tweeter" or two separate officials blowing their whistles...If the C did, he would have had the "look thru" to make the correct call...
