Anyway, you do not see a scramble by these players for the ball. Look at the stills, and you can see most of the players of team B standing and waiting for the ball to be RFP. There are just a couple of players ostensibly trying to play the ball, and according to the written acc't, they did so after the U moved into the vicinity.
