Still can't think of another time seeing that, pretty strange play. Glad they hung on for the win.
It's very much "letter of the law" versus "spirit of the law". However, consistency with the former would have dictated that play be called back for a foul throw caused by the initial push. It's not very often that all three pundits on BT Sport's post match commentary are adamant the ref unnecessarily got involved.
