Isn't it a thing in Rugby that only one person can talk to the ref for your team? That at least makes sense. Have your little ambassador and keep any potential drama from further ruining the case you are trying to make.

Only the captain can respectfully talk to the ref (on the whole, though there is often quite a lot of chatter). The array of penalties available to the ref makes enforcement easier. Even just losing 10m more because of backchat is expensive in a game of territory.
You crowd or dis the ref? Penalties, sinbin, etc. The ref is an important part of the game, they set out the official line on what is happening and thus which rules apply.

I played in local recreational soccer for a few years, one of our coaches got banned for a couple of games for yelling at the ref and pulling our team from the game early, our goalie had a cleat mark on his back and we knew who stepped on him, but the ref refused to do anything about it.

Can confirm, I referee’d u10-u16 games back in High School. Our supervisors always stressed to us to not issue red cards EVER and only give out Yellows for major infractions. Never really questioned it, never felt like I had to pull a red. Only ever gave 1 yellow in my 4 year tenure as a referee.

If you’ve played soccer/football, you also know that when you’re running full speed like that, a “light push” can send you flying. It’s not like American football where the pads make a loud crack and there’s a definitive collision. There are exceptions to all this, of course, but I think a lot of my fellow Americans don’t “get it” if they’re not fans of the sport.
Probably because most of us have never run farther than from the sidewalk to our cars when it’s raining.

It’s really frustrating. I played for years (can’t now, I’ve had 5 knee surgeries and it is not happening lol) and even at an amateur junior high level you can see people go flying with the right kind of contact/speed. Plus this was in the 18, on a likely goal attempt.
There are occasional flops. It happens. But there are some that seem innocuous that are actually pretty dangerous situations.

If a light push is done to prevent an apparent goal-scoring opportunity, straight red is justified. It doesn't have to be violent, only effective.
I see another top comment arguing the attacker flopped because he outdribbled himself. May or may not be true. Doesn't matter. It's on the defender to keep his hands down when he's trailing like that. If the attacker let himself fall from the illegal contact, that's just gamesmanship.
It doesn't help the defender in any legal way to reach his arm out for contact. He's pursuing, he can pump his arms in a natural sprinting gait. Anything else is his risk.

diving/gamesmanship exists in every sport, the only difference is how the fans act. for some reason American fans think games like basketball, AmFootball etc have none of this

71 points
2 days ago
The difference is the impact of dives. In soccer, dives like the one in this post just granted his team a player advantage for the rest of the game. Dives in soccer often end up with PKs, and considering the average number of goals in a soccer game less than 3 (Prem league is 2.72 according to google), that’s a HUGE advantage.. one goal is 36% of the total goals expected. There’s really no comparison between that and, say, the NBA, where a dive can, at MOST, get you 3 free throws. If you assume they hit all 3, those 3 points make up maybe 1.5% of the ~200 points you an expect in a full game...
so to reiterate the game changing impact of dives in soccer is unrivaled, and as a result it’s a viable strategy (according to the numbers above it’s literally 24x more impactful than in basketball). And that’s what makes it suck, it makes more sense in the gif we just saw for Mbappe, an unbelievable athlete, to flop onto the ground than for him to show off his tremendous skill by trying to stick with it and score despite the minor shove he received. Dives are robbing us of good plays and it makes soccer a much worse product, more so than in any sport.

Honestly this sort of thing should be reviewed by a second set of refs with access to electronic reviewing equipment.
Keep the game flowing - let the ref on the field make the call - but then the next time there's a pause, for any reason, call down with a change to the call, reverse the red flag and yellow/red flag the flopper.
Regarding OP's video: not sure how much this would change. He was definitively and deliberately pushed, regardless of the severity/how hammed up the reaction was.
But I've definitely seen other videos where it's so obvious of a flop that it should be punished.

Well you dont want people pushing an opponent from behind and see how hard they can push to get the opponent to just be a bit slower instead of bringing him to fall and you dont want people to just fall down at every little touch.
The solution would obviously be video review and to hand out additional punishments after the game that go into effect for future matches, but for some reason no sport wants to do the obvious.
Would be so easy for referees to see this clip and tell both players to keep their little grabbers to themself, stop the diving shit and sit out the next game(s) of equal importance if they didnt get punished in this game.

It's not the diving and gamesmanship that drives me nuts, it's all the theatrics that take place afterwards. In the NBA you flop, look for the call, your teammates help you up. Soccer you get lightly shoved, you collapse to the turf and barrel roll fourteen times as if you're a sopwith camel pilot trying to dodge the red baron.

Exactly. It’s not how hard the foul was, it’s because the defender was the last man and he denied Mbappe a relatively great scoring opportunity.

Haha this is complete opposite in baseball. You being a superstar means every single ump wants to fuck you. One of them was even on twitter a couple years ago bragging about how he threw Josh Donaldson, 2015 MVP, out of the game.
Why do all these other sports have refs that try and protect the stars, but MLB has refs that try and punish the stars? Cause it's true I've seen the same thing in basketball, refs won't call fouls on Kobe but will if someone touches him. But in baseball if there's a big famous star stepping up to the plate, ump is gonna start calling balls a foot out of the zone as strikes.

Since then he has been able to walk half the court and never gets called for traveling, it would be gross to watch if he wasn't so insanely talented lol.

Before all the bleeding hearts mess up the comments section, let me explain the situation from the perspective of someone who's played competitive soccer for nearly two decades.
Any contact from the back is automatically penalized, a guaranteed yellow if it interrupts a developed play as a "strategic foul". When a developed play is inside the 18 yard box, that's when you have to be extra careful. If you foul the attacking team within it, you risk a penalty shot that almost always translates to a goal. If you foul someone intentionally as they're about to score, you risk a red card and a penalty shot.
The foul you see here is every deadly soccer sin in one moment. He intentionally fouled the striker who had the ball from the back, during a developing play, inside the 18 yard box as he was making a scoring run. Even if it was outside the 18 which takes the penalty shot out of the equation, the goalie in pink was only yards away from him meaning that it was a very desperate situation for the defense. This red card is perfectly warranted and if he didn't send him off, the ref would've lost control of the game.
Red cards aren't just for sending off Frenchmen head butting shit-talking Italians, it's to draw a line for fair play within the standards of officiating. This was absolutely the correct call.

From this five second clip it looks like the attacker pushed off the front of the other guy to get ahead. Is it legal for the attacker to push to create distance? He looks faster than the defender so I'm not sure why he needed to create distance. Also when you get pushed from behind your body doesn't just go limp and fall. You tend to take a few more steps then tumble. Dude probably could have still scored even with the arm tangle. Kinda just looks like he gave up on the play to draw the foul.
11 points

That's a great question. Any player can absolutely push in general as long as the arm isn't fully extended for a push off. This is typically left to the the ref's decision and is overall arguable which is partially why players flop. If you're asking about this instance, the offense made no illegal contact and you can even argue it was within the player's natural range of motion. Most skilled attackers use their arms to protect themselves and to keep balance. You see Lionel Messi, whose a very skilled and clean player, do this in just about every single play because less skilled defenders will play dirty. The fact that he could make physical contact with the person behind him meant that the defender was way too close. There's absolutely no legitimate reason for a defender to be that close directly behind the offense as you can't make a legal play from that position. You can come in at an angle to slide tackle in front of the player, but he was clearly trying to throw the attacker off balance from behind or run him down out of desperation.
No matter how you look at it, the defender was completely in the wrong. Given this specific situation, he needed to be sent off.

I think you should be fine as long as it's near the end of their run and you sprint in the opposite direction.
Then of course someone pushes you and the never-ending cycle of joggers being pushed begins.

I dont watch soccer. But I have eyes. And I can see that he didn't intentionally fall. It's usually pretty obvious when they're faking it. They usually fake an injury after too.

The telling part is when mbappe slides like 10 yards after going down. He was going SO FAST when he went down it's insane.

Its so frustrating when people talk about flopping and soccer. Ive been barely touched running full speed and that shit hurts like hell and I feel easily.

A lot of people have never being pushed even lightly when running at full speed, most of them are also probably slow as shit

There are 2 types of cards in football (soccer) yellow card is a warning (if you get 5 yellows during the season you get 1 match suspension), if you are granted 2 yellows in the same game it equals a red card and in case of a red card you have to leave the field and you also get 1 match suspenssion, for the next game (it can be appealed, most of the time the club just accepts it)
This time he the player was expelled for an action known as "the last man" wich most of the time is a clear goal opportunity thats been denied by the last defenders doing a foul and most of the time its a red card. And in this case Mbappe was sprinting (man can reach speeds of 36 KM/H or about 22.5 MPH) meaning that you wont need much effort to take him down at those speeds.

Doesn’t matter if it was a hard push, he pushed him a few yards away from the goal denying a clear goalscoring opportunity, it’s a red. Anywhere else on the field isn’t a card, but he knows the rules you can’t do that when the guy has a clear chance 1 v 1

Shoves to the back are cardable anywhere on the field. It's just a matter of red or yellow. Shoves are not always a card, but when it's to their back is another issue as you're playing opponent, not the ball and that screams retalitory shoves not hard play.

Thats Kylian Mbappé. Hes prospected to be the next football super star behind Messi and Ronaldo. Hes 22 and one of the fastest guys in football

For perspective he’s been clocked at top speeds of 25mph(40kph), compare that to say Usain Bolt at 27mph and it’s just crazy that Mbappe can go that quick in a match, often times after an hour of play has already occurred.

He disallowed an obvious goal scoring opportunity from behind and that calls for a red card all day.

This is one of the few instances where something crazy doesn't have to happen for a red card. Even a tap on his back while he has a breakaway shot on hold is a red card. Since a goal can win a game, and a yellow card would be a good trade for preventing a goal, it has to be a red card.
I got to call this one time as a ref and it was pretty exciting. I can't speak for all refs, but cards are a blast to give out.

Last man though. That’s the rule. The ref had two choices there, either give a red card to the defender and a penalty OR give the player in blue a yellow for simulation.
It’s a direct goal scoring opportunity.

Whenever you deny somebody a clear goal scoring opportunity with an intentional foul it's a red card. It's not always about how hard the foul is.

Nope, that's 100% a red card. Referee here who knows the Lawbook in and out.
The push itself wasn't the reason for the red card. It's because the player had an obvious goal scoring opportunity. If you commit a foul that prevents someone who has an obvious goal scoring opportunity from taking that opportunity, it's an auto red card.
So it wasn't the push itself, it that he pushed a guy who was about to take a shot on net. If you could get away with a minor foul for preventing a goal, the. Everyone would foul someone about to score.
Now recent rules do have a few changes to this, but it's still the same concept.

Defender was clearly beaten. Seeing the keeper come out, the foul occurred inside the penalty box.Defender could not make a play on the ball in a legal move.Yes it was just a push but you have to add all the circumstances. Defender should have let his keeper make the play. That’s a red card for me easily.

Once you are in the box, foul at your own risk! yes a flop, but last man and denial of a scoring chance. Dem be the rules.

Is it a flop? Think of the speeds they're running, any kind of push at that point can throw your balance.

Lot of peeps focusing on the push but Mbappe goes down after his right legged is tripped up. Unintentional from the defender at that speed but the arm doesn't matter, it's the trip that takes him down and it's a red card.

Regardless the point stands that any kind of contact at these speeds will cause you to lose balance.

For sure. Defender has to get inbetween or dispossess, anything else in that situation at that section of the field is asking for a card.
It's a tough angle too. Like it looks very much like a trip but this is a terrible angle to gauge contact. If the ref viewed the contact from either side he's going to see that as a trip.

If the last defender in the backline takes down a clear goal scoring opportunity, it's an automatic red card, no questions asked. There was no clear attempt at the ball and Mbappe was probably going to score. Poor defending.

My Favorite soccer dive was the guy who was flicked In the ear and went down like he had been shot.
