Black is ahead of Red 19-12 with less than a minute to play. Red has ball within 22 M. Red 5 passes to Red 10 and after the pass Black 10 hits Red 5 late and high taking him out of play. Late hit was not seen but red player on ground holding his throat is, so on assumption of a late hit, play advantage. Red works the ball to a 2 v 1 overload, where upon completion of pass, Red has a good chance to score. With just seeing the overload, advantage is over, but the pass is errant and is on the ground, played by black but goes out of bound. Stop clock, bring Black Captain over, and yellow card #10 (since I did not see the actual hit, I could not go red, even if it may have been deserved). Restart with line to Red, who throw it in squint, game over.
Was this 2 v 1 overload advantage gained? Normally in sevens I would say a 2 v 1 overload is an advantage, however in this case, was I too quick, since Red was down a man (player taken out by late hit)
