What's your decision?


When the incident occurred, defender (white) pulled attacker's jersey (yellow) at position '1', the referee (red) was at position '1'. There was no other player around except these two players who has a goal scoring opportunity. As this attacker was still moving towards goal so the referee played an advantage. The same occurred at position '2', an advantage was still applied. The referee decided to blow his whistle when he has no more advantage as two other defenders have closed in. A free kick was given.
Questions:
1. Was the referee correct in playing the advantage?
2. If he had stopped the play at position '1' or '2', what sanction should be given to the defender?
3. He stopped play at position '3', was he correct?
4. What sanction should be given to the defender if play was stopped at position '3'?
