A player in the Brazil ian top flight stopped his opponent from scoring after using what he thought to be an '1000 IQ move' - but didn't expect what happened next.Then, 10 minutes later, winger Everton ran through on goal and looked to get his shot away - but was stopped by what looked to be a genius move from Criciuma midfielder Gustavo Barreto.
Barreto spotted that there was a second ball which had made its way into the 18-yard box - and kicked it towards the ball that was at Everton's feet.Fans had mixed views on the incident, with some claiming that an indirect free kick, or even a drop ball, should have been awarded - or the referee should have stopped play before the incident given that two balls were on the pitch.
"If this position is off the field of play, the free kick is taken on the nearest point of the boundary line.The last sentence shows that the referee did indeed make the correct decision on the field. When you think about it, it certainly makes sense - as a defender could theoretically kick a second ball onto the pitch at any time when they see a dangerous attacking move.
Live in constant hope of the top flight as a Preston North End fan. Written in the past for SPORF, GiveMeSport and more.
