I just gotta say that the ball was in the air and both players went for it and arrived at the same time both hitting each other. it was a clear 50/50 ball and when the whistle blew we all thought the call was the other way as the player ran into the goalie as you see so many times. Not intent but going for the ball as our keeper was. Then the official pointed to the spot. We were all quit shocked.
The way I see it is the keeper has to go for the ball as he is last man and the ball is moveing towards him. Not that scoreing isnt important but the forward could pull out and he is chaseing the ball. I think thats why usually that same play goes in favor of the keeper. Usually..
I personally thought it was a very week call.
Thank god we came back after that.
By his own admission, Your GK just said he clattered into his head with his shoulder. That constitutes a weak call?
