Is it a Goal ...or a Penalty Shot ?? Answer provided by Referee Chuck Fleischer Sorry, I have to answer this question with another.

View Referee Chuck Fleischer profileAnswer provided by Referee Michelle Maloney How could it be a penalty kick? No referee in his right mind is going to pull a goal out and give a PK instead, except in the most unusual of circumstances. If the attacker is the one who commits an offense, then yes, pull it out, but otherwise, the referee will apply advantage to any offense committed by the defender and award the goal. Much stiffer penalty to give the goal than the PK, yes?
