He kept bellowing, he can't use his left foot, shut down him down. This was quite comical because the reason they played my son on the left side was he was the only player that could use both feet very well. My husband coached his team young and used to have them wear two different color socks to practice in Kindergarten and develop each kid's non-dominant foot.
When my kid blasted one in the goal left-footed I couldn't help yelling at the top of my lungs "beautiful LEFT foot, X'. Coach was quiet rest of the game about his left foot.
And I mean---reallly? What a-hole taunts a little kid, one not even on his own team (not that it's ok either), was in 5th grade at the time. And Futsal is close quarters so you can hear everything very clearly and loud in the those gyms.
