Question

[Bert Le Clos]

Was having a discussion with a mate over the weekend about an incident which neither of us knew the outcome to.

 

An attacker picks up the ball on the by line and runs into the box. He knocks the ball round a defender then runs the other side of the defender to pick up the ball, and ends up running off the pitch.

 

If the defender fouls him while off the pitch, preventing the attacker getting to the ball, does the referee give a penalty even though the foul took place off the park?

[Dave Spacey]

Indirect free kick maybe?

[RobboM]

Depends if it's for or against the OF

[Victorian]

no foul, play on.

Depends if it's for or against the OF

 

Exactly this.

Ref gives the attacker a yellow card for deliberate hand ball

[hughesie27]

Off the ball incident. So whatever the rules are on that.

it depends on who the referee has a season ticket for either of either side of the ugly sisters.

Had a look at the 'Laws of the game' and found this:

 

"The following conditions must be met for an offence to be considered a foul:

 

? it must be committed by a player

? it must occur on the ?eld of play

? it must occur while the ball is in play

 

If the referee stops play due to an offence committed outside the ?eld of play

(when the ball is in play), play must be restarted with a dropped ball from the

position of the ball when play was stopped, unless play was stopped inside the

goal area, in which case the referee drops the ball on the goal area line parallel

to the goal line at the point nearest to where the ball was located when play

was stopped."

 

There's also some further stuff where the Old Firm are involved, i.e. penalty and sending off if they were attacking! but I won't bore you with that! :-)

simple, free kick to the defending team and a yellow card for the attacker.

 

why? "An attacker picks up the ball" - clearly a deliberate hand ball!

I think the defending Team get an indirect freekick as the attacker has left the field of play without the Referee's premission. (In some circumstances a player can be booked for leaving the pitch without permission)

Killie player pushing Temps into the camera so he couldn't get past him?

[Paolo]

No penalty. It does not matter where the ball is. It is whether the foul took place in the box or not.

 

If the same team is attacking and the striker's defensive team mate decks the opposition striker in the box of the defender's team then it would be a penalty to the opposition.

How precise is the determination of whether a foul took place on the field or not? Say a winger beats the fullback and goes partially out of bounds with his left foot in the field of play and right foot over the touchline. If the fullback kicks the winger's left foot then it's a foul. But what if the fullback trips the winger by the right foot?
