The ball comes across from the left and is met at the near post by an attacker. The shot hits the left hand post and bounces out into the middle of the six yard box. A defender catches the ball, walks a couple of paces holding it in two hands and then, realising what she's doing, drops the ball which the 'keeper picks up and clears. No penalty given.

An attacker has the time while the defender holds the ball to stop, stare in astonishment, point at the defender and turn to the ref and say something like "look what's she's doing" and the look of sheer disbelief on her face as the ref waves "play on" is a classic.
cue offside rule joke
