League: WC2014 Home: Columbia (Yellow) Away: Ivory Coast (Green) Date: 2014-06-19
Tags: common sense; corner kick; funny; player error; referee;
Trick corner kick play; #18 moves ball into corner arc, then rolls it forward out of the arc (making the ball "live", if his movement is considered a "kick" by the referee); #10 comes over and starts dribbling the ball; the referee (Howard Webb) stops play, says/gestures "NO". One must assume he didn't see the original ball movement by #18 as a kick; since the ball ended up outside the arc, #10's dribble can't be considered a double touch since the ball wasn't in the arc and therefore his first touch couldn'

League: Champ League Home: AC Milan (Red/Black) Away: Celtic (Yellow) Date: 2013-09-18
Tags: communication; referee; referee mechanics; referee tool;
"interaction" between two opponents; ref calls them in; they ignore him until he starts to reach into his pocket (for YC), then they respond; potentially useful referee tool;

League: England Home: Arsenal (Red) Away: Stoke (Blue) Date: 2013-02-02
Tags: AR; communication; offside; referee;
two offside decisions - first one very clear - second was flagged by AR because AR didn't see deflection went off defender; referee correctly overrules; referee also must defend AR;

Tags: AR; bad offside call; communication; foul; funny; handling; offside; referee; unusual situation/call;
bizarre situation - OS flag up, OS attacher peels off, then defender picks up ball, with hands, for OS IFK; referee calls handling; AR clearly embarrassed; AR gets next OS call wrong too;

League: England Home: Aston Villa (Claret) Away: Tottenham (White) Date: 2008-01-01
Tags: anticipation; positioning; referee;
AST leading 2-1; slow as possible in taking FK; triangle play in corner to eat up time; hold in corner to eat up time; referee positioning great for actions in that corner (where the action will be); anticipation is important;

League: Gold Cup Home: USA (White) Away: Mexico (Green) Date: 2007-06-24
Tags: player management; referee; YC;
Beasley tackled (looks like foul); not called; Mexico gets ball, Bocanegra gets opponent with hard tackle = enforcer; YC; notice low five with teammate afterwards; call simple fouls first - keep things under control - this referee's risk management choice could have been better;

League: Spain Home: Villarreal (yellow) Away: Atletico Madrid (white/red) Date: 2007-04-08
Tags: offside; referee;
defender injured on goal line, which counts towards position of second-last opponent; therefore not OS. Referee is responsible for deciding whether to stop play or not.

League: UEFA Cup Home: Sevilla (White) Away: Tottenham (Black) Date: 2007-04-05
Tags: dropped ball; interference; referee;
outside interference at corner flag (security guard taps ball over goalline) - drop ball; defender kicks out for TI - good sportsmanship; notice that was not a good move for a security guard who was probably a home team fan - would have given up a corner kick instead of a throw-in
