Ipswich defend an indirect free kick with 11 men in the box after their goalkeeper misses a simple back pass and almost concedes a goal against Wolves. (i.imgur.com)

Great to see the entire team coming together to make sure one individual's mistake can be fixed. This is what team sports is about (among other things)

Indirect freekicks are so chaotic in a fun way. Having the whole team block the goal is the sort of wonderful tactics you would employ in the school yard.

It would be so fun if they changed the rules so current handballs are punished with an indirect free kick. Then I wouldn't hate all the called and confirmed handballs that are clearly ball to arm.
