Noticed something in the Spain game that I never saw before.

There was a foul and a team was given a free kick. The defensive team is supposed to give the taker 10 Yards. Normally an official will place himself ten yards away from the ball, and out stretch his arm. Meaning the defensive team has to be behind his arm.

But in this game the official had a can of spray to mark a line. That the defensive team ad to be behind. I don't remember seeing any official do that before.


only the unloved hate
