Make The Call - 4/8 - 4/14

A defender, standing immediately next to his team's goal post, denied an obvious goal scoring opportunity to the opposing team by intentionally handling the ball. The ball, however, landed next to the opposing team's attacking player who also had an obvious goal scoring opportunity. The Referee decided to apply an advantage rule, but before it had a chance to materialize, another defender committed a reckless foul on the attacking player in possession of the ball. The attacking player never managed to take a shot on goal. The Referee stopped the play and at that time was advised by the Assistant Referee that the "goalkeeper", who made the save is a substitute goalkeeper, who switched places during the half time with the starting goalkeeper, without notifying the Referee. What should the Referee do?

Answer: ATR 12.38, 12.28.1  Award a Penalty Kick, Send Off both defenders and Caution the "substitute" goalkeeper.
