Any direct kick including kick offs and goal kicks, that go directly into the goal without touching any player is scored as a goal. The only restarts where a ball must be touched before going into the goal before it counts are indirect free kicks,dropped ball, and throw-ins. Of course, the ball must be in play and one cannot score against ones self on any restart.

Answer provided by Referee Gary Sebalja

Corner and kick off and kicks are scored if they go directly into the opponents goal. balls going into your own goal is a rekick for a goal kick as it did not leave the 18. Corner becomes a corner at your end and kick off must go foward.
