Law 5 - The Referee 10/18/2011

Aaron of Chicago, IL USA asks...

Panel,

A few months ago I took a referee course, and in the course we were given a situation to think about that went roughly like this:
---
Red is attacking the blue goal, when a ball is passed near a red attacker who is in an offsi...

Gabe Rieger of Lake Jackson, TX USA asks...

Thanks for the follow-ups. That is what I thought, but wanted to confirm. Yes, it was a harmless mistake, as she is learning the position and simply stepped across the line before punting. It should be a warning, and I am always on them from the s...

Terence W. McGarvey of Kirksville, USA asks...

I read the various referee replies to the situation. Most of you seem to think if the game was over the ref would have 'lost' his authority (except for obvious violence, etc.), though one you believes that while in his right to issue the card, it sh...

Al of Strathroy, ON Canada asks...

Just another comment to help Chris. I often say to other team, 'If that happened to your defender, no Penalty Kick in MY game.'

TV? Most recent USSF Week in Review 'handles' a similar situation. Unfortunately the Referee got it wrong.

Adam Abrahams of Cranleigh, Surrey UK asks...

I reffed an Under 9s game today. A defender punched the ball into his own net. I think he panicked and tried to punch it clear of goal but it ended up in his own goal. Penalty or allow the goal? Because handball happened a fraction first, I gave the ...

Andrew Page of Pleasanton, California United States asks...

If I see a serious foul but the person who was fouled has a clear advantage, can I give the advantage and once play has stopped (goal, goal kick, throw in), then I go back and card the person who fouled?...

Christopher of Eastound, WA USA asks...

This happened in a high school game where my dad was the AR, and we had a little argument on this one after the match:

An offensive player on the opposing team (blue team) crosses the ball into the box. The ball is going too far, and not to ...

Phil of Tarzana, CA United States asks...

I had a similar situation, but slightly different. I called a foul & signaled in the correct direction (& even announced the team color). However, one of the girls from from the wrong team ran & kicked the ball & everyone took off down the field.

Nivea of SanJuan, PR US asks...

Today we had a strange game.
First, during the game a mother of our team yelled to a player of another team 'don' be a baby, get up and play', or sorts, after the ball was taken from him. The player yells to her 'Shut up'. Our team captain, g...
