"This is Not Soccer"

[Robert Goodman]

I take it that in the clip first posted, the problem was at :09, where the player was distracting the ref by indicating that a certain player was tying up the ball. We don't know whether that player had been a PITA previously during that game by doing similarly.

Do you really like that style of refereeing? Does the talking-to not say to that player and the world, "I'm letting this guy get in my head."?
