Question Number: 17799Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 11/9/2007RE: Professional soccer of Ny, NJ Yugoslavia asks...Can one kick the ball while on the ground in a game? Answer provided by Referee Steve Montanino Sure!
It's never a foul to play the ball whilst laying on the ground. However, if the opponent places himself or an opponent in danger by doing this AND that danger places the opponent at a disadvantage, the the referee should stop play and award an indirect free kick for "playing in a dangerous manner."
