Still a troublesome play for me

Did F2 have the ball? No.
Was the ball between F2 and the runner? Don't think so, since it hit the runner in the helmet (although F2 was reaching for it).

From the rest of your description, I personally think it was "just a train wreck." From the two sentences noted above, you can always say, "Coach, your player was blocking the path but didn't have ball and was not immediately receiving the ball. I had obstruction, but that's a delayed dead ball that was no longer valid after the runner scored."
