that wasn't the problem. it was the call that led to the kick that resulted in the penalty. cards being given to keepers for time wasting is common. never seen an indirect free kick awarded for it.

Usually those cards are awarded on a goal kick or free kick, dead ball. If the play is live and a card is given for time wasting, you have to award the indirect kick. My point is, the game wasnt lost on that referee action, it was lost on the hand ball and the inability to rebound in extra time.

I didnt see it live, but if the ref felt the need to make that call, she must have been clearly wasting time.
