Here is an instance as to why you should always give the throw in guy his three yards of space in soccer/futbol. If you don't, you might just get FACED!
Here is a second example of a throw to the face (but the kid didn't fall).
(For the record, the thrower in the second clip was given a yellow card, which is not how the rules of soccer/futbol generally go. It's a perfectly legitimate throw-in in both cases, and in each the defender is simply too close to the thrower, and is at fault. The ref could have given a red card in either case if he deemed that the thrower intended to mess up these kid's faces. But if that wasn't the case, then you can't give a card, and that's what should have happened.
Also, because everyone on the YouTube clips doesn't seem to get it, futbol/football=soccer. American Football = A very small specified sport that, while awesome, took the name second (Besides, they use their feet a ton more than we do). So you don't have to love soccer, but don't be a dick about its name for no reason.
Two Flip Throws to the FACE!
