GK playing a ball or not
Need some advise if I did the right thing or if I was wrong.
I was reffing an u8 football match but both teams were playing up to 7v7.
Home team goalkeeper stopped a shot and controlled the ball with both hands in his box absolutely fine.
He then proceeded to walk to the edge of his box realising the ball and kneeing it back up to himself, the ball never touched the ground, I warned the goalkeeper that I classed this the same and releasing the ball into play, manager said I was wrong and hes allowed to do this.
Was I wrong?
If im wrong how would you deal with this?
