Default Re: Putting the ball out of play

That's cool. Have you ever seen it with the team with the ball down by 1 with under a minute to go? I doubt they would do it in that situation.

It happened in England a few years ago, in an FA Cup tie between Arsenal and Sheffield United, I think it was 1-1 with a few minutes to go. I think a Sheffield player got injured, just after Kanu (Arsenal) was brought on as a sub. Seconds later he proceeded to score the winning goal (claiming he never saw the stricken player), and the Sheffield manager of the time, Steve Bruce, ordered his players off the field! Later the Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger offered to replay the game, which was accepted, and was duly comfortably won by Arsenal.
