Free kick returner does not know the rule

[bigjohn]

The kid should have let the ball go and cross the GL on its own. No doubt. His momentum did carry him into the EZ without a doubt. It would have been very difficult for him to stop, he was running toward his own GL. His play was very poor technique but that doesn't negate Momentum Rule.

I disagree that his momentum took him into the EZ. He was under control and even walked back into the EZ. He even turned around to look at where everyone was located.
