The referee stopped play to book Bale for what he interpreted as unsportsmanlike behaviour, a bookable offence. Play was then restarted with an indirect free kick to Fulham... If play is stopped to administer a caution or dismissal: If a foul has occurred as well as misconduct, play is restarted according to the nature of the foul (either an indirect free kick, direct free kick or penalty kick to the opposing team); If no foul under Law 12 has occurred, play is restarted with an indirect free kick to the opposing team
