When used correctly, the ball boys can be a massive pace controlling in a match. They can get a ball back quickly or cause a delay of play, giving the team time to complete a reset and get in place.
I'm not too familiar with football but is that allowed? In my eyes the ball went out of bounds, or you guys call it offsides I think. Kid proceeds to throw in his own ball too.
As great of a play that was, unfortunately it should have been called back. One foot was in bounds during the throw which makes it void and the other team's ball.
@DrunkinMaverick Nope, this is a common misconception about a throw-in. As long as at least a part of both feet is on the touchline (or outside) it is fine. His left foot was touching the touchline and his right foot was outside. Technically, you can play a throw-in with just the back of your foot slightly touching the touchline and the rest of your foot inside but players don't do this cuz each time the ref can't see it clearly and the opponent objects they will lose the ball cuz of it. "have part of each foot on the touchline or on the ground outside the touchline" from the rulebook.
And he got to have lunch with the team afterwards. Lovely touch by Mourinho to invite him, and Kane sat talking to him the whole time. Saw him interviewed, he was a lovely kid.
Player took a ball to the chest and got confused, first he went to dive like hed been shot, realised the ball boy getting sent off wouldnt help, so he went to shout at him, realised he was in a no win so spun around complaining to noone lol
Reminds me of the first time I played lacrosse with ball boys. Normally the ball goes out and you can catch your breath while someone gets the ball, but with a ball boy, it was right there ready to go. Hard work in defence.
