Question Number: 35843 12/21/2024Petr of Prague, Czech Republic Czech Republic asks...This question is a follow up to question 35837 I'm not sure about the restart location. Isn't it more like where the player was when the assistant referee raised the flag?
I have a situation for that, I will also put VAR in there :-)
Situation:
A lone player in an offside position runs after a long pass. The assistant referee wants to raise the flag early (POINT A). The raising is delayed due to VAR. The player touches the ball (POINT B) and completes the action. The assistant referee then raises the flag.
The question is, where is the restart? Point A can easily be 30 meters from point B (A is close to halfway, B perhaps at the corner flag).
Thanks! - The distinguished panel of referees is still discussing this question. We will have an answer shortly. Thank you for your patience.
