- A parent knocked a referee to the ground at his kid's soccer game after a controversial call. We spoke with Andrew Reali, the referee who got decked by the dad who was more than twice his size.
What a standup parent. Wouldn't let his kid just play the game and instead got their coach reprimanded, the possibility of their team being expelled for the entire season, and now is looking at criminal charges. You really showed your son how to be a responsible adult.
It was his kid shouting at the ref any chance of that kid being a good sportsman went away long ago!
@@karood-dog3584look how his dad acts in public just imagine how he acts in the comfort of his own home.
Of course the father is wearing a ballcap with that dumb golden sticker still on it.
You can spot these Monster Energy + Vodka drinking psychos anywhere.
Real life Randy Marsh...no worse than that, worse than an imaginary thug.
Possibly why the boy got in the refs face the fruit didn’t fall from the tree
So the kid followed the ref across the field and got in his face over a call he didn't like? I wonder where he learned that kind of behavior.
Probably from his mom
Looks like bruno fernandes brother
@@DudeMuscle na, mom was quietly sitting on the side of the field with the dark sunglasses on a cloudy day not wanting to get in the middle of it (again).
@@David-ql1hd nah she was sitting there and sent her husband over to get the guy who made fun of her hair
Honestly, wouldn’t be surprised if it was seen as normal since many Pros do it
How pathetic do you have to be as a grown man to tackle a referee over a kids soccer game? Just wow.
Total loser
Extremely pathetic
Has your kid ever been blind sided a clear elbow to the back of the neck and no call.
@@tornillio Nice try...not relevant
@@tornillioWant a tissue???
Ref that red carded the dad is hilarious.
haha like he gives a flying F about a red card hahaha. how about an assault charge lmao
Lmfao
He was holding up the red card before he even saw the dad
Full immersion
That's like a cop red carding you for running a red light.
Update. He received 30 days in jail. He was charged with a misdemeanor
It was a plea deal with the prosecutor. He should have gotten a year and a felony record for assault
@@dougn2350 except simple battery is only a misdemeanor. They cannot charge it as a felony.
@@user-eg2fh9pj5t the opening active term was "should have". He should have been surrendered to police in damaged condition after being forcibly restrained by every other able-bodied adult male in attendence. He should have been charged with a felony, since the possibility of potentially crippling and/or lethal brain or neck injury is always present when an unpadded, unprotected, and unprepared individual is knocked or thrown to the ground, especially from behind at speed.
He should have gotten at least a year in prison so he truly understands how friggin' stupid he is. He should have been sentenced to 10 years, by rights.
The kids should be banned from the game as well, seeing as he tried to physically attack the much smaller referee over a foul call his behaviour indicates he was clearly guilty of, having to be held back by his teammates, and also just had to chirp some trash at a now concussed referee lying on the ground while the punk's dad stood over him after blindsiding a guy half his size. His teammates should be furious at him for what he and his father have done to their tournament hopes. His schoolmates should be furious at him for the shame he brings upon them. His collegiate aspirations should be dust in the passing wind.
All of that should have happened. It did not. All of that could have happened, but someone in authority chose not to do their job. All of that would have happened had someone in authority done their job properly.
@@thehellyousaygenuine masterpiece
The ref should sue the child that hit him.
Way to go dad, you ruined the season for so many people.
The real Allstar here is the second ref that red carded the dad lol
😹😹😹😹
He was on it
Lost it when i saw that
😂😂😂😂😂😂
That’s the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life
The guy says "don't you ever put your hands on my son". Meanwhile his son started the whole thing by getting in the ref's face over a stupid call. I love how people instigate and then are appalled that anyone dares to defend themselves.
Apple didn’t fall very far from the tree in this family.
So me in your face is the same as being pushed by someone. Great logic to ignore a spoiled kid..
@@ronbo30 If a kid gets in your face, can't you just walk away ?
@@jimdoe3288If he keeps following you and invading your space and screaming in your face, then you have the right to prevent him from continuing to harass you.
@@NonstopFFriday This debate is worse than you explaining people give birth lol,.,
A kid not a grown up gets in your face and you would push a KID. Why not act like a grown up and walk away ?
Or call the police of you feel threatened ?
Are you saying the man was threatened so he pushed a kid out of his face ?
I can imagine people protesting over a black kid being pushed by a white Male lol...
These parents should, 100% of the time, be charged when they do something like this. They need to send a message that this behavior won’t be tolerated!
He should be tried and convicted and sentenced for battery
it should even be a harsher penalty to deter this kind of action its gotten worse over time I saw last week a gun was pulled out at a kids football game people take this shit way too far. Its a game not the end of the world.
@@rob_1 Why should it be a harsher penalty to deter this kind of behavior? That makes no sense!!
In most states, battery on a sports official is a felony.
Agree it is why I quit coaching and refereeing youth soccer.
What a coward that parent is. I bet his kid is just as cowardly as he is!
Did you not watch? The kid was bigger than the ref, too, and he was trying to attack the ref before the father charged out there. He also had to chirp at the ref while his dad was standing over him roaring like a friggin' moron at an unprotected man half his size that he'd just blindsided at speed.
The punk is just like the dad.
S**t never falls far from the a**hole it came from.
How would you define ‘coward’?
@@Jonas-gl9ketackling someone from behind is pretty cowardly.
@@clushdelga4831 So how would you define ‘coward’?
@@Jonas-gl9ke a person who tackles some one from behind, using a cheap shot to try to make themselves look tough.
90% of the time it’s the parents who ruin it for the kids.
90% of stats are made up! What are you talking about. 90% of what?
Jail time for this maniac. Can't believe this is still happening.
America is not normal. Have you seen the verdict of the killing of a thief in a taco shop? That murderer got away, free of charge, after getting to grand jury. And this is suposed to be jail time? Really?
You see the bad parenting in action with his son’s body language with the adults on the field. Then you see who taught him such disrespect shortly after. Talk about a fragile man that his world is so small and self-absorbed, that even the littlest things like this has him resort to violence immediately. Great job to the woman that decided to have a child with this caveman.
If the dad is like that in public, I wonder what their home life must be like.
Never played soccer, but in school I played rugby and let me tell you the comments from moms and dads during 9 year old matches was horrific.
I'll never forget one sad screaming at his kid to "execute" another kid.
I heard comments as well but comments and physical attacks are two different things. Your comment is irrelevant.
@@GuillermoSanchez-jr6mpthis is how these things escalate. I had to confront another coach last spring because his coaching, and the parents on their team as well, were encouraging their kids to be overly aggressive, and a few of the kids took it to extremes. One boy got banned from the league, and that coach's daughter is one incident away from being banned herself. And this is in a minor, uncompetitive (play for fun, not to win) U10 league with many new players trying to learn the sport. Stop making excuses for these barbaric goons.
@@GuillermoSanchez-jr6mpbro execute is wrong in almost any context of a match of 9 year olds
@@jamarr81 we found a shitty parent here. if guillermo isn't a parent, let's hope he never becomes one.
That’s funny lol. I remember when I was wrestling in high school and one of my teammates lost his match. His dad stormed out of the gym and flipped off his son and said “f**k you!” straight to his son’s face. He looked back at the team and laughed as we all smiled because everyone knew his dad was nuts 😂
Glad this ref is standing up and not letting it slide. Horrific behavior.
He is not The Referee , he is what's called a Linesman, two Linesman and one Referee, a Linesman holds a Flag and stands on the Sidelines watching mostly for Offside.👍
@@tradeladder146 officially they are all referees, the ones on the sideline being assistant referees
Starts at home. You see why the player is smarting off? Like father, like son.
exactly
This is why no one wants to ref. Now youth leagues of all sports have a hard time finding refs.
I can imagine that
I just started refereeing. Some parents are highly abusive.
Oh, please. This was nothing.
This. All of this. Started when I was 15, and kept with it. But almost every other ref my age or younger quit because of how the parents treat young referees. It’s terrible, and it’s why there’s a referee shortage
@@catrachofreak but unfortunately some referees are cheaters
Like father like son
I'm sure he's a stellar "father"
He's obvious a stellar performer at the dinner table.
He is. he just lost his temper. I know him. Good guy he is
@@larry7079he physically assaulted someone far smaller than him. Good guy? Stop fooling yourself
Yeah. Just stellar.
This business about parents assaulting referee's has been going on for too long. Ban the parent and kick his/her kid out of the team. Make it a zero tolerance issue.
i play regional level soccer and i dealt with so many horrible parents and all their talk and crap. it’s something i got used to over time but this is crazy
Cool!
Yeah when I played club there were some parents that were just idiotic. I heard it the most in soccer, not so much in football or baseball.
They think their kids are going professional.
@@_Jake.From.Statefarm_, there are 100 times more US baseball/softball videos on CZcams than in US soccer. But those parents at least have to yell from the stands behind the fence; having parents right on the sidelines in many U5-U16 leagues, especially when they're on the same side, escalates situations compared to more separation between fans and fencing between players and refs.
@@jamarr81 CZcams videos mean dick squat. Igrew up playing club for both baseball and soccer. Check the participation numbers... Not only that but it's much more physical than baseball and softball. So there are more calls that enrage parents in general.
When you buy your son's way into football, and then prove that you have zero sportsmanship and know nothing about the sport.
as a youth referee i see exactly what you are saying way too often
And they wonder why it is harder and harder to find refs
What makes it worse is that he’s not even the center ref: he’s an assistant, which is totally uncalled for. I’ve had to deal with asshole coaches and parents all the time bc they have some sort power trip at their kids soccer games to act like complete morons.
The correct term is Linesman, in Soccer there are 3 Officials, two Linesman and one Referee. 👍
They are Assistant Referees now. Have been for about 10 years
@@tradeladder146 they changed the official term linesman to assistant referee almost 17-18 years ago
Lmao the red card to the dad
The dad should had been sent off
Dad gotta get some jail time so he can remember its ONLY A GAME!
Apparently you didn’t watch the whole video. The referee shoved his son…he’s lucky he didn’t get it worse than he did imo
@@Truth3305 The son was following him and getting in his face. If someone was doing that to me then I’d shove them too. Big difference between that and hitting someone full speed blindsided. Get your facts straight.
I agree
@@Truth3305 Where is the whole video that shows the shove by the A/R?
@@kaosaechao400 as a ref you must be ban for doing that tho
The guy has to keep his composure he is a professional.
The hell is wrong with you to assault a dude over this shit.
You did catch the part where the Ref shoved the kid right?
@@brandubh7046he didn’t “shove” the kid Karen. The kid got in his face. He walked away. The kid chased him and got in his face. He pushed the kid away. Grow up and don’t have kids until you can learn some respect yourself.
The kid is just like the dad.
Like father, like son.
I did refereeing back in 2010 and something like this happened to my friend across the city, and the whole family was permanently banned from youth soccer within 30 minutes.
I refereed soccer from the age of 12-21. I have so many stories of out of control parents. It’s almost a constant thing now. Last tournament I was at, the police were called 3 times over that weekend for parents chasing referees off the field and following them to their cars. The crazy thing is that when you watch the game, the refs calls have nothing to do with why they lost.
The first few times it's actually kind of funny, when some mom rants after the game because Jose didn't get a pen. But yeah, it take any enjoyment you might have out of the game.
Yep. I kicked a dad outta the game when I was 15 and refereeing 5 year olds.
A Sacramento man has been sentenced to jail for tackling a linesman during a junior football game.
Vicente Robles Jr, 35, pleaded no contest in October to a misdemeanour charge of battery against a sports official after he became violent when he disagreed with a call made by the match official.
Judge Steven Howell sentenced Robles to 30 days in jail earlier this week and one year of formal probation for the attack in Rosewood, California.
Soccer dad should NEVER be allowed to show up and his kid should also be banned…sorry for the kid, but if his dad is this way the kid will follow
Very possible and I'm in agreement with you 💯
I was waiting for this comment because you're right. You have thugs raising thugs.
This makes sense, we should just start putting kids in prison because their parent committed a crime. Let's definitely make sure they don't get the chance to rise above the class they were born into.
@@shedmartinez5979 Nobody but YOU said we should put a kid in prison. Nobody else suggested that. Why do people make up their own words and then base their argument off of Their words, not someone else's. Where did someone say we should put kids in prison because of the father's actions? Not allowing them to play in that sports league is a far cry from sending the kid to prison.
IMO I don’t think the kid should be banned. The father should be arrested for assault and suspended from attending future games though for sure.
I refereed high school soccer for 25 years. I initially worked wreck ball, but quit after about 10 years. Got tired of out-of-control parents (and some coaches).
thats crazy
I was a soccer referee for 7 years and I can attest to how out of control the parents can get. It’s hardly ever the coaches or players fault.. almost always the parents who instigate. I was verbally berated every weekend and “assaulted” once… that dad went home with a restraining order and a black eye!
Big picture at the younger ages, the parents mirror the coaches. By the time they get to U16 the die has been cast. But at the younger ages the parents copy the form of the coach and the coaches have a responsibility to nip this in the bud but they rarely do.
Yes giving the dad a red card will make him leave 💀
Register the incident with FIFA. The team, player and dad can be permanently banned from the sport.
The kids don’t have to suffer
@@guyinyourbushes6632 fuck the kids I don’t give a shit about no kids😂
you mean no ballon d’or?
Too much anymore people walk around with this, "You're screwing me over", attitude about everything in their lives. I watched a guy go off on our postal letter carrier over a package he was waiting for. The poor carrier tried to tell him that he doesn't handle package delivery. Oh but he WORKS for the post office so he should be able to find out where the package is and why it's not here yet. The counter girl at the BK should be subject to your angry tirade over getting only two pickles on the Whopper you ordered, and by golly only getting two pickles instead of four clearly shows that BK is trying to screw you out of two pickles. The idiot that screams at the C-store clerk about the price of their beer going up 50 cents and accusing the clerk of raising the price so they can pocket the extra 50 cents for themselves...You're screwing me over...and we think this attitude entitles us to lash out and even attack others...
I get what you say to the fullest. I always said that it’s a mixture of miserable, pessimistic people that lack taking accountability or admitting mistakes.
Unfortunately it seems that 90% of
People are like this, even the good ones.
You seem to have a unique and elevated perception. Hope im right and that you don’t let these weak, worthless souls affect yours brother 💪
DA gave him probation and not a single day of jail. Joke of a justice system.
That’s assault … five years in prison … send a message to these losers …
😂 5 years for a shove? 🤡
@@davieferguson202 yes, it’s called assault … besides a grown man who resorts to that level of violence needs some ti,e in prison …
@@Darkstarr-ud2godef not 5 years. But does deserve some time.
@@Darkstarr-ud2gofive years is like an armed robbery lol
I coached soccer for over 20 years and had to stop a game about 3 times due to a REF. NOT protecting the players. Tackles from behind etc....
Yeah the behavior displayed by the parent is obviously abhorrent and he got what he deserved (perhaps it was light), however as a coach and parent it's a difficult situation when the ref doesn't protect the safety of the kids. Violence in soccer can result in permanent injuries.
In my city the kids play like fucking swines and the refs don’t even show red cards. My brother’s team play with kids 4-5 years older than them and i always fear for them getting hurt with stupid tackles (which they are not even allowed to do in my region) with no yellow card or red card
Pop is a total coward, hitting somebody from the side like that. He needs a nice little vacation
at the local "Gray Bar Hotel" AND his son should be banned forever from playing soccer in that league !
The son didn't do anything- his father is clearly unstable, but no logic to punish the son.
Punish children for the faults of there parents. Yah and his neighbour shouldn’t be allowed to play soccer either
@@bastienm.2709 Banning the kid MIGHT just teach dad that he was totally out of line to do what he did. Nowadays people think there are little or no penalties for doing something wrong !!!!!!
@@ruralhealthadmin son started the altercation and has shown no remorse on social media (the opposite in fact). He should be suspended
The son was in the refs face and being dramatic, watch it again.

On a serious note glad to see he wasn’t severely injured or concussed.
Wow, this Dad ruined it for everyone.
it isnt even the official referee he barged into lmfao he barged the linesmen
Linesman is the one that had the incident with his son.
Must have been a tight offsides call
Itzkyle obviously wasnt paying enough attention to the video lol
No longer called Linesman they are all Refs Assistant Ref including Video Ref.
linesmen can signal the main official of a foul. He likely was the one that called it
It's so bad, I've had police officers have to hang out around the ref shack at youth (8-14 year olds) events
This “dad” should be put in prison for assault and he should be investigated by the state as to how he is raising his kid.
Coward didn’t even have the guts to tackle the referee directly. Had to do it from the side. He belongs in prison.
My dad has yelled at refs for controversial calls but he would never run on the freaking field and tackle the ref 😂
Are you not entertained?!
-Gladiator
you just made my day :)
i do feel bad for what has happened to the team. there is no way that a coach could stop that parent. The child on the field that "started" this should be suspended from play, but to discipline the whole team for this is sad.
what a coward, he came from behind. Shame on dad and his sorry ass son.
I'm amazed that parent was able to run that far.
Dad should go to jail. Horrible parent and role model to his own child
Soccer dad is a coward that belongs in jail.
To me he already has been
Hospital. ICU.
I like how the best title they could come up with for this story is “Referee Decked” 😂
He should arrested for assault. These parents that are living on the edge of every call need to stop living vicariously through their kids.
It's battery because he made physical contact.
In the late 80's I refereed a LL baseball league in my small hometown. Worse experience, in sports, by far in my life. Due to the constant parental berating and the overly stern coaches. I should've seen it coming when the older/experienced home plate umpire told me to never park my car in the parking lot, but to park down the street and walk in, and never let the parents see what I drove. No matter what the call was, one side ended up hating me. And I mean hate!!
If that was me I would have walked away right in the middle of a game.
Exactly why there is a shortage of youth officiating in this county where bad behavior has been normalized
You did catch the part where the Ref shoved the kid right?
@@brandubh7046 if you are talking about the other player with neon jersey then yes I did catch that, video did not show a ref shoving a kid. Regardless… bad behavior has been normalized in this country…
@@waywardronin8755 I agree. And if the Ref hadn't had such bad behavior as to push a kid, the father wouldn't have knocked him down.
@@brandubh7046 that so called kid got in the refs face and wasn't compliant with his call, thats what initiated the whole thing, if he respected the ref in the first place like he should have then the dad wouldn't look like an asshole!

Bro gave the dad a red card😂
Sue the crap out of that guy put him in jail make it so others will think twice before acting stupid
I sure hope the civil suite gets a good payout for the ref. When I coached youth soccer, I had a team and families meeting where everyone signed an agreement understanding that the child would be removed from the team if they "or their parents" misbehaved during a game.
Why? So he can buy more meth??
"Possibly" pressing charges? How could he not..?
He got tackled, the pussy sue everyone generation is pathetic. How do you know what happened before the tackle

Dad's a bully! Screwed up his son's team for the season. Dad needs to be banned from games permanently!
Dad needs to go to jail. This is an assault. He needs to be an example of.
I see this happen a lot more than it should. This parent not only should be charged with assault, but also made to attend anger-management training and/or community service to the league itself. Simply no excuse for this.
Whenever I see "anger management training" mentioned, I think it would only piss them off even more.
@@richatlarge462 Indeed
He should be charged with battery as well.
That is typical soccer behavior both from players and fans alike. When a ref makes a call immediately go and scream and curse at the ref. I play rugby and what the ref says or calls is obeyed. No one from the teams go and either talk back or push a ref, you say I was wrong and take the yellow card, red card, or keep playing.
ha... soccer in the states
@@igaroot
It is the same in every country we’re soccer is played.
I’m not defending some of the behaviour in football (soccer) but the rules of rugby are less open to interpretation and the players can let a lot of aggression/frustration out naturally due to the nature of the game i.e. tackling other players.
Dad goes to prison for five years.
I hope that psycho is prosecuted, and the gentleman who was assaulted files a civil suit.
Thanks to the dad now all of the kids can't play, It isn't the coaches or refs that ruin the games, it's the parents, especially with there comments
I live near Sacramento and I'm as shocked as anybody LOL the dad is like twice that guy's the referee size
crazy parents only run up on people they think they can get away with this on.
@@Joekuh very true
That dad now has to deal with the embarrassment of ruining his son soccer team for the rest of the year and most likely is going to jail. It is crazy to me that people will throw their lives away for a kids sporting event. Some people just never grow up
The parent SHOULD HAVE run out to his son to stop him from confronting the referee. THEN, the kid wouldn't have been pushed by the referee (which was wrong, anyway).
What the hell were you watching? The kid was trying to attack that ref, and had to be held back.
That is after the linesman pushed him you can't lay your hands on a kid full stop
I wonder if that dad beats his wife and/or kid(s)? I hope not.
Dad's just mad he chose soccer over football.
That second ref thinks it is the red card's magic power that gets players out the soccer field😂
I did a brief stint as a Little League baseball umpire one year, and you never ran into a more psychotic bunch than Little League parents. The kids on the field were more mature than they were.
Yeah I bet! I soooo wouldn't be surprised if what you just commented was 100% factual.
I played soccer and now my daughter has played for the past few years. Refs make bad calls and it can be infuriating but this type of behavior is unacceptable and he needs to be made an example of in his community.
I hope this guy spent a year in jail for his stupidity.
Wow, what a tough guy, blindsided the guy half his size. That better be jail time.
Looking back, if I was the referee or Asst. Ref. I would have pulled my red card halfway out of my pocket and would have told the youngster to step back. With a father like that, I am sure the son is probably just as aggressive.
If I was on that crew, Dad would be in the hospital. You don't fuck with my crew.
@@AbsoluteNut1pretty brave for a guy on his alt account
He wants the younger referees to see that if this ever happens to you don't lose hope? He has obviously never had an older brother
The dad was sentenced to 30 days in jail and 1 yr probation
The game is losing too many Refs for this kind of behaviour. The violent Dad should be dealt with harshly.
bro pushed the linesman not the actual game ref 💀
ARs are game officials, and are treated equally
That's your takeaway from this, is it?
my bad sorry guys
We must love one another
To attack him the way he did was very cowardly. 👎🏻
Player #6 had one of the earliest retirement games in soccer history.
The man loves his soccer. He doesn’t look like he plays though
Dad is a big guy
No, not really. Overgrown toddler, tossing a wobbler, needing a good a** tanning.
How little do you have to have going for you to take a kids soccer game that serious.🙄
In the dad's defense he thought this was "NFL Football" lol
Please tell me this guy was ID and named. Wow big man hit someone from behind. Trash. And his kid will live forever now ashamed. Doubt he plays now
Correction: The individual tackled is an assistant referee in this match, not a referee
Read what you said again and just observe it. “Assistant referee” is still a ref
Still a referee. Ti ti di.
Re read your comment
That changes absolutely nothing
At least 2 years in prison.
like father like son. If I were the coach, those two wouldn't even be allowed to watch the games from the parking lot again.
The hardest hit he took in his life lol.
Really funny. Loser.
This is unthinkable. An American that cares about his son's soccer career.
