As an aspiring referee, these videos are so incredibly helpful. Thank you for all the work and effort you put into these, it is so informative and interesting to watch these and helps me greatly in my game management
I don't know if it's just for me but there's a slight lateness between sound and video like sound comes up late. Great video though thanks for helping us to improve !
You are correct and it is very annoying. The BCL videos are like that when I get them and it is just too much work for me fixing the sound. Still I wanted to get this out to my channel. Understanding of the game will help watching this and looking at the referees giving signals. Glad this can help to improve.
On the first clip at 0:18, the way gold #11 looks back before speaking to Mazzoni makes me think he did this on purpose to stop the break. Interesting strategy if this is the case, since you give up a nearly certain 2 points for a PF, 1 point and a set up defence. Perhaps a worthy trade. Interesting to think about.
Thats what I thought too! I know some clever coaches do this to stop a fast break and hope the ref pulls the T on the spot. We as refs want to wait until the play finish and then give the T so the offensive team doesn´t get disadvantage but sometimes it´s hard in the heat of the moment.
