Question 1 thru 10 of 21104- [Next]
Law 11 - Offside 12/13/2024Petr of Prague, Czech Republic Czech Republic asks...Hello
One last thing please.
1. A5 passes the ball. A12 is in offside position. There is no other teammate nearby. A12 runs to the ball. AR raises the flag when A12 is ten meters from the ball. Why is such a player offside? What...
Read The Full Q & A Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 12/9/2024Petr of Prague, Czech Republic Czech Republic asks...I'm not sure. I'd be interested in the criteria. I understand that it's up to the referee to decide. And there are no such things as criteria. I'd almost say that he has to kick him in the head or misses his head by 20 centimeters or less. :-)
<...
Read The Full Q & A Other 12/9/2024Petr of Prague, Czech Republic Czech Republic asks...There are 24 official languages in the European Union alone. I see 5 of those languages on the IFAB website. (English, German, French, Spanish, and interestingly, Slovenian. Slovenian is a smaller language than Czech. Czech has about 13 million speak...
Read The Full Q & A Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 12/8/2024Petr of Prague, Czech Republic Czech Republic asks...Hello
I have another question about the spirit of the rules.
Why do we rarely see the bicycle kick as a
dangerous play at the highest level? I would say much less than, say, five to ten years ago. Have referees become more...
Read The Full Q & A Law 3 - The Players 12/8/2024Petr of Prague, Czech Republic Czech Republic asks...So that's another problem with the Czech version of the rules.
Believe it or not, they write this there:
A player can intentionally leave the field of play without permission.
when the player:
a) is injured
...
Read The Full Q & A Law 3 - The Players 12/7/2024Petr of Prague, Czech Republic Czech Republic asks...Hello
one more 're-enter' question please.
The ball is in play. The player voluntarily decides to leave the field of play (due to injury or equipment repair). This is allowed by the rules.
Does the player have to ask ...
Read The Full Q & A High School 12/5/2024Robert J Saccoia of Rancho Cucamonga, CA United States asks...When the Ref does not know the number of a player who committed a yellow card foul
And no one will admit to it who should get the card, captain, coach or no one?...
Read The Full Q & A Law 9 - The Ball in and out of Play 12/4/2024Crebs Crem of Zagreb, Croatia asks...Hello,
This question is about disallowed penalty given because of an off-the-ball challenge.
Say, there is an off-the-ball challenge between players A5 and B5 in the penalty area of team B. At that time, the ball is being played...
Read The Full Q & A Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 12/2/2024Petr of Prague, Czech Republic Czech Republic asks...Hello,
one situation from Czech League please.
Video:

(I hope it works abroad too.)
I'd rather describe it. The attacker lightly touches the passed bal...
Read The Full Q & A Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 11/28/2024Barry Stewart of Chilliwack, BC Canada asks...Hi all,
I saw this "goof up" back pass in social media and wondered if we are classing this as a back pass where a keeper should not be faulted for using his hands.
I'm thinking at the grassroots level at least, it could be a "p...
