So I am watching the Timbers game and DC's goalkeeper was holding the ball for longer than Franck Song'o liked so Song'o went up to DC's keeper and as the keeper dropped the ball to kick Song'o kicked the ball but the ref called a penalty and gave Song'o a yellow.

Was that the right call? I was a referee but I cant remember what the Rules of the game say about this.

Yeah, that's just not a smart move. The ref will likely always give a card for that. I remember in the USOC final when Montero headbutted the ball out of DC United's keeper's hand and was given a yellow card.

I don't know what the rules say either but I think that will probably get carded every time.
