Summary 09491: twcup98, twsoc98: sometimes when the goalkeeper gets the ball they never kick it away
Description the game will 'softlock' in some situations when you kick the ball to the keeper. The keeper will not throw or kick the ball out, and even when the timer runs out the game does not continue.

this isn't a recent bug (it's always happened) and the game is marked as 'NOT WORKING' but having a report allows for an inp to be uploaded, making it easier to reproduce for anybody interested in looking at it.
Steps To Reproduce kick the ball towards the keeper, keeping it low.

it's easy to reproduce, and happens quite often, but there doesn't seem to be a specific trigger, many times the keeper will kick the ball away without issue.

for an easy reproduction use the inp provided (make sure to delete NVRAM folder first)

inp is compatible with 0.288

I'd also be interested in hearing from anybody with the original cartridge here, to know if the issue ever occurs on real hardware (I doubt it, but stranger things have been found to be real game bugs)

I've also included a version that reproduces it with -nodrc, so so that this isn't a recompiler issue

also not specific to the teams, the replays might both be Italy vs Japan, but it's easy to reproduce against other teams as well
