TAYLOR WAS HASTY

I ONCE blew before a corner could be taken — at Euro 2016 between Croatia and Czech Republic. Luka Modric and Co weren’t happy. But that was different. That was for

half-time. Anthony Taylor blowing for fulltime before South Korea could take their corner against Ghana sparked ugly scenes.

Referees are urged not to end the game in an attacking phase. A corner is an extension of that, and I’m sure there had been enough stoppages in the 10 minutes of extra time to enable South Korea to take the set-piece.
