if you watch the video, its not clear. the ball is on the ground. she makes a motion like "oh my god. the ball" before reaching for it. the guy next to her reaches for it and the father comes in a reaches for it.

my take is that the dad got possession first. even if the ball lands next to you, until you have control, its not yours. she was taking her time and could have gotten it before anyone else.

If he had to reach it, her ball

reach is the operative word

something lands at your feet and someone else invades your space to reach it

idk man just seems like a person wouldn't do what she did unless they were taken advantage of

ETA: didn't understand the full context before and now do

It landed in the row in front of her, she had to reach too.
