Replying To WanPintWin:  "Less likely to happen in GAA, as both players would be trying to get it with their hands. In soccer, at least one of the players would be trying to get his head on the ball, so the risk is greater.
Leading with the knee is done quite a bit in rugby when two players are contesting a garryowen."
???? Beggan or any keeper doesn't need to come out for a ball like that. Should have been a red card.

Agree completely. You can block a hand pass by jumping. There's no need to lift your knees up like that. He was lucky it wasn't worse than just a free.
