Disco Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 That's another thing that annoys me tbh penalties are too easy. Smashing the ball from 12 yards with no defenders it just encourages people to dive as soon as they get over the line. I'd love to see the spot moved back a couple of yards to give the keeper more of a chance, or ideally only give penalties for fouls that denied a clear goalscoring opportunity, otherwise just have a free kick inside the box. Seems silly to me that if you get tripped on the corner of the box with five men between you and the goal you still get a free shot from 12 yards. Actually I’m fairly certain that a penalty is only for denying a goal scoring opportunity. There have been cases where a foul has been given in the box and as the attacking player was moving away from goal, only an indirect free kick was given. The most common cause of free kicks being given in the box is the backpass rule. It just happens to be that most fouls in the box can be deemed as denying a goal scoring opportunity.

Interpolic Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Pretty sure the ref can give a pen for offside, if it's a bad enough offside. Extremely rare but seen it a few times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Reminds me of Tino's first goal against Barcelona. Knew it was an indirect FK so made sure the keeper got a hand on it. Superb thinking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Used to love when Nobby used to that fake, dummy pass to Shearer when we had an indirect freekick or one on the edge of the box Used to love when Nobby scored and he used to point at and go straight up to the person who made the assist. Should probably just bump his thread Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exiled in Texas Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Pretty sure the ref can give a pen for offside, if it's a bad enough offside. Extremely rare but seen it a few times. Nope. Offside can only be called against the attacking team, so it would be a (Indirect) Free Kick coming out for the defense. Cannot be a Penalty. All penal fouls that would be awarded a Direct Free Kick, if they occur within the Penalty Area, would be a Penalty kick. However, a technical foul that's not a penal foul, such as obstruction or playing the ball in a dangerous manner (high feet without contact on opponent preventing a fair challenfe) that would be awarded an Indirect Free Kick, would still be an indirect Free kick from the spot of the foul even within the penalty area (as long as its not within the goal area) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
