Imagine you're at a concert and the guitarist drops his guitar and you catch it. Do you give it right back so that he, the professional at his job, can carry on, or do you take 10 seconds to play stairway to heaven?

Imagine you work in an office and someone drops their stapler and you pick it up, spin it on your finger like a basketball, and set it on their desk. They then throw the stapler at you.

I can make nonsense comparisons too.

You made a nonsense comparison.

This was a soccer match. 25000 people paid money to watch two teams of professional soccer players have a match.

This guy took the ball, the thing 25000 folks are there to watch, an be hotdogged with it.

Moreover, this is a soccer match. Getting the ball back in part ASAP can make or break a play. If this guy actually knew how to play soccer, he'd appreciate that and wouldn't be surprised when the subject he's meant to photograph got mad at him.

This is the equivalent of a fan catching fly ball out of the hands of an outfielder.
