Depends on if you consider the tap controlled.

I've always used the test if at the time of the tap if A2 requested time-out would you grant it? In my opinion, the answer is no, you couldn't.

If they considered it controlled then yes they got it correct.

If not, then no they didn't.

Player control cannot be established by a controlled tap. He must either be holding it or dribbling it, tapping it is neither regardless of how well the tapper controls the ball's direction.

What if the player "pushes" the ball?

Where can I find the rule in the book ?

Unless he holds it in the process, nothing.
