It’s ridiculous, why didn’t she just boot the ball into the stand?

That's comically mistimed and misjudged but I don't see it as being all that much worse than what happens multiple times a game when players make more of an effort to stop the opponent playing the ball than they do to just play the ball.

A pet peeve of mine. Unless it's Darren McGregor doing it.

What's the Ukranian no. 21 protesting at? :hilarious

Looks like she's been getting lessons from Connor Goldson.

It was the beeline she made for the NI girl.

Shoulder to shoulder, fine. An all out NFL style block (and a crap one at that) as the last (wo)man. Red all day.

It's nothing like what goes on in most games.

Very odd. The ball is right there to be played.

Must be some gambling cartel involved with that one.

The difference is that when most players do it they’re in control of the ball letting it run out of play, she was nowhere near the ball.

What makes it totally different and worse to what goes on in most games is she chose to run away from the ball, which she was basically standing over and could have done anything she wanted with, and elbow her opponent in the tits.

I was going to write that surely not as bad as one I can recall from Prestley or Berra (can't recall who) on Stephen Fletcher at Easter Road, who was taken out leaving the ball to run through to Gordon in goal.

But, yes it's much more blatant. She actually deviated her run by two yards to block the NI player.

[CMurdoch]

Very funny when you see the behind the goal angle.
A real wtf moment.

She didn't even need to do that. Plenty time to take the ball inside or even just pass it back the GK. Moment of madness haha
