Law 3 - The Players 7/4/2018

Andrew Sikora of London, UK asks...

I have seen substitutes in the World Cup coming onto the field to celebrate with their team when they score.

George of Parangarecutirimicuaro, CA Sacratomato asks...

Player goes down in a heated game. Center stops play and summons the coach to attend the player on the ground. Parents from the other team insist the player must abandon the field of play since the coach was summoned.

Law 5 - The Referee 7/3/2018

Larry of Danville, CA US asks...

While I agree with your answers concerning parents complaining about throw ins, I don't think it should be ignored. We loose so many refs because of complaining fans, I think it is required for us to stand up to the ill informed at these lower ages a...

Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 7/3/2018

John Lubeck of Livermore, CA US asks...

Thanks very much for the answers!

Kicks From The Penalty mark 7/2/2018

Douglas Wix of Liverpool, Merseyside United Kingdom asks...

Thanks for informative reply. I guess I will never agree with your answers. I feel the Danish defender took the player out & in fact what would have been a goal could have ended up Denmark beating Croatia-pity there isnt a penalty goal award!

Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 7/1/2018

John Lubeck of Livermore, CA United States asks...

Croatia Denmark Round of 16
An absolutely clear and unequivocal DOGSO. YC given. Statements abound that the rules have changed. I read the 2018/19 Law of the Game. The only change I see is that IF ADVANTAGE is played a YC is given whether a go...

Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 7/1/2018

Chris Thomas of Fairfield, CA United States asks...

What has changed in the Laws of the Game that allowed a yellow card to be issued to Denmark during their match with Croatia when a goal scoring goal opportunity was denied by a penal foul in the box? More importantly, how did the VAR referees not s...

Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 7/1/2018

Al Fiero of Syracuse, New York USA asks...
