Question Number: 25084Kicks From The Penalty mark 6/10/2011RE: Adult Michelle of Rochester, MN USA asks...Is this a goal?
http://sports.yahoo.com/soccer/blog/dirty-tackle/post/Why-goalkeepers-shouldn-8217-t-be-too-quick-to-;_ylt=Ai1dQjis5_5HRFK7JdItre8mw7YF?urn=sow-wp2377
Note that the team appealed and it was ruled that it was not a goal Answer provided by Referee Joe McHugh Hi Michelle
This question has been asked a number of times. I question this appeal decision if it is indeed correct?. There is nothing in the Laws that allow for the ruling that the penalty is completed in KFTPM when the ball hits the ground after making contact with the frame of the goal or the goalkeeper at a penalty kick in KFTPM.
I suspect that if the ruling has been made by a competition authority it will be challenged to its National Body.
All the GK had to do was kick the ball away rather than a silly celebration while the ball was still in motion.
