a late foul on the attacker is still a foul. was this a foul or did the attacker fall over a player who did nothing wrong? if the defender tried to clear the ball and missed, then the attacker tripped over the attacker's leg, that is a foul and, if in the pa, a pk. matters not that he got off a shot and it eventually missed the goal or wasd saved by the keeper.
consider this. same play but the defender does not trip the attacker. instead he hits the attacker with a punch just after the shot is taken. what do you call? no foul? i don't think so.
the original post needs a decision whether the defender committed a foul or not. if a foul, then a pk. if no foul, just incidental contact, then no call.
