Sure sounds like A1 fumbled to me.

Nope...A1 wasn't grasping the ball. A fumble can't happen during a dribble. It happens as a result of unsuccessfully trying to hold the ball.

Good point. I guess that that's why there is a lot of fumbling in football, football players don't usually dribble the football. Something to do with the shape of the football.
