Having nothing better to do I re-watched a fair amount of USA v. Spain U17 from last summer. Paige, Boston, Horston etc etc. There were a far number of loose balls and almost all of them turned into a rugby scrum with the whistles just standing there. An anomaly or is there a rule that has this effect?

Here's an example:

 
All I know is that International Play has the reputation of being more physical and having less calls made than the USA games.

This would certainly explain why foreign players wear those "flack jackets" under their jerseys.
