Burnley 2-1 Portsmouth
Incident: Aim scored, potential offside (Portsmouth)
Determination: Aim awarded, no offside (Portsmouth)
Foy says: “This is a superb choice made by the assistant referee, highlighting nice judgement and consciousness.
“On account of his shut proximity to the road because the ball is crossed, it might look as if Portsmouth’s aim scorer, quantity 49, is in an offside place. Nevertheless, we are able to see that Burnley’s no. 5 and Burnley no. 2 who slides in to dam the cross are literally enjoying him onside.
“The assistant referee is able to identify this in the quickly developing picture and he correctly keeps his flag down. The goal is rightfully awarded.”

Had been Stoke Metropolis unfortunate to have conceded a penalty in opposition to Hull Metropolis?
Incident: Attainable penalty, potential offside in build-up (Hull Metropolis)
Determination: Penalty awarded (Hull Metropolis)
Foy says: “From an educational point of view, this clip offers some valuable learnings as to whether an attacker in an offside position should be penalised following the ball being touched by an opposition player.
“Because the ball is crossed into the field and headed up into the air by Hull Metropolis’s no. 9, Hull’s no. 33 on the back-post is in an offside place previous to the awarding of a penalty.
“Although Stoke City’s no. 17 does get a touch on the ball before bringing down Hull no. 33 moments later, this is not a controlled action by the defender. Therefore, this is not considered a deliberate playing of the ball and Hull no. 33 remains active from an offside perspective, therefore he should be penalised for an offside offence when he challenges the opponent and plays the ball, before being fouled by the defender.”

Ought to the QPR participant have obtained a warning for intentionally making an attempt to maintain the ball out of the web together with his arms?
Incident: Attainable warning, handball (Queens Park Rangers)
Determination: No warning given (Queens Park Rangers)
Foy says: “This is another interesting clip from an educational point of view as it highlights the different levels of action needed to be taken for a handball offence.
“Millwall’s no. 19 shoots and, simply earlier than it crosses the aim line, A QPR defender intentionally handles the ball, in an try to preserve the ball out of aim.
“Had this action prevented the ball from going into the net, then this would have to be a straight red card for Denial of an Obvious Goal.
“Nevertheless, as his try was unsuccessful, the proper choice would have been to award the aim and present a yellow card to the QPR participant for unsporting behaviour.”

Ought to Leyton Orient have been given a penalty for this problem in opposition to Stockport County?
Incident: Attainable penalty, foul (Leyton Orient)
Determination: No penalty, and yellow card for simulation (Leyton Orient)
Foy says: “This is decisive refereeing here as a yellow card is correctly shown for simulation.
“Leyton Orient’s no. 2 takes the ball contained in the field after which goes down when he feels contact from Stockport’s quantity 33.
“We can see from the replay that the contact was very minimal and not enough to warrant the player going down, therefore the attacker’s action is an attempt to deceive the referee. The referee’s positioning allows him to identify this and he correctly shows a yellow card for a clear act of simulation.”

Was offside the proper choice right here within the match between Bradford Metropolis and AFC Wimbledon?
Incident: Aim scored, potential offside (AFC Wimbledon)
Determination: No aim, offside given (AFC Wimbledon)
Foy says: “This clip highlights the importance of good communication between the match officials, as it is correctly identified that AFC Wimbledon’s no. 14 commits an offside offence before he puts the ball in the net.
“AFC Wimbledon’s no. 11 latches onto the header from Bradford Metropolis’s no. 17 and, if he had continued the run himself and scored the aim, there would have been no points.
“However, when AFC Wimbledon’s no. 11 touches the ball, his teammate no. 14 is in an offside position. Therefore, when no. 14 becomes actively involved in play by collecting the ball after the touch by no. 11, he is correctly penalised for an offside offence and the goal is correctly disallowed by the referee.”

Did MK Dons need to go right down to 10 males after this sort out on a Doncaster Rovers participant?
Incident: Attainable crimson card, severe foul play (MK Dons)
Determination: Pink card proven, SFP (MK Dons)
Foy says: “For me, the challenge of MK Dons no. 9 is a lunging challenge. Leading with raised studs and made with excessive force, it meets the threshold for serious foul play.
“The extreme power used to make the sort out leaves the referee with no selection however to point out the straight crimson.”
