Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 10/13/2016

Frans Versluis of Edina, MN United States asks...

Law 6 - The Other Match Oficials 10/13/2016

George of Parangarecutirimicuaro, CA Sacratomato asks...

Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 10/13/2016

Barry Stewart of Chilliwack, BC Canada asks...

First, I'd sure like to know how George pronounces his town's name: PARANGARECUTIRIMICUARO? Wow!

Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 10/13/2016

Brad of Plymouth, Michigan United States asks...

The scenario noted of a player hanging by the crossbar in order to head the ball made me think...while it is clearly a DOGSO, what is the actual foul (and thus restart)?

Kicks From The Penalty mark 10/12/2016

George of Parangarecutirimicuaro, CA Sacratomato asks...

As i re-read modifications, I thought back to a game that went to penalty kicks. Players were too nervous and volunteers were scarce. My question is, if a nervous player decides he/she has a restroom emergency in the middle of kicks from the mark, do...

Dave of Johnstown, PA USA asks...

George of Parangarecutirimicuaro, CA Sacratomato asks...

When the ball is on the attacking plus AR side of the field and when there is a throw-in in favor of the attacking team, I have a tendency to run 5 yards past the mark. I then turn around and signal the spot to the player getting ready to throw the ...

In the Premier League, when a player receives 5 yellow cards he is suspended for 1 game. In this scenario, a player is on 4 yellows and then receives a straight red card in a match. Are his 4 yellows still accounted for and the next yellow will mean ...
