On the subject of if a keeper should catch or punch….I do not think he has a choice, in the split second he has to make a decision which is the right one he will either be right or wrong, I doubt keepers think beforehand they will punch or catch. If they are in catching mode though and are favourites to get the ball, if they get clattered they will have a foul decision for them in most cases. A punch maybe a little “iffy” if keeper gets it wrong
