WTH? What play are you watching?

1. Defender moves behind opponent.
2. Defender grabs opponent's arm.
3. Defender moves opponent's arm so that opponent's arm strikes defender in the face.

Basically, the defender hit himself in the face using his opponent's arm. You're going to call that foul on the player whose arm was grabbed?

Look, I don't really care what happens in soccer, but if that happened on the BB court, it would be an intentional foul on the defender.
