Ok so I just got back from a tournament. It was the final, and we were winning 3-2 and it was nearing the end. I was playing left mid, but dropping back as left back to sort of defend the last 10 minutes or so out...
The ball was bouncing towards the my goal line, and a forward was running onto it. So I cut across and blasted the ball out of sight. The referee ran over to me and said "that's the last time you clear the ball like that." And I said "I'm allowed to clear it how I like thank you" and he replied "You see what happens if you do it again."
A minute later, a similar situation occurs, this time I turn on the ball a little more and it flies about 2 feet above the ground going up the line, and ends up going out at about the halfway line. The referee runs over to me and books me for time wasting.
I felt like knocking some sense into him.
