    What is an Indirect Free Kick!? In this video, we will be breaking it down. There are 7 different instances in which you should award an indirect freekick:
    1. A player plays in a dangerous manner
    2. A player impedes the progress of an opponent without contact being made
    3. Dissent
    4. A player steals the ball when it’s in the goalkeeper’s possession
    5. A player flicks the ball up and plays it back to the goalkeeper
    6. The goalkeeper holds the ball for more than 6 seconds
    7. The goalkeeper releases the ball and picks it back up

    Slight correction to this video. There are 8 different situations for indirect freekicks.. Though I get the ones addressed are pretty much only in and around the box.
    The 8th is during kickoffs, quoting from wikipedia "It is an offence for the kicker to touch the ball a second time before it has been touched by another player; this is punishable by an indirect free kick to the opposing team from where the offence occurred".
    I've only ever heard of this happening once, so is extremely rare..
    But hey.. It's mildly interesting... Like I heard there used to be a rule where if you kicked the ball so hard it broke the net, then you'd have to continue the game without your shorts on.. That level of mildly interesting...

      Incorrect. There are 14 different cases. So he missed exactly half of all other cases:
      Every offside is an indirect free kick.
      Any time a referee calls simulation.
      Every dangerous play without contact.
      Every protest during play if the referee calls it.
      Every back pass picked up by the GK in the penalty area.
      Any trickery used to make a back pass.
      Any time a referee calls for the 6-second rule.
      Any time a person from a team makes an offence towards a teammate outside the field of play.
      Impeding an opponent without contact.
      Preventing a goalkeeper from releasing the ball (without contact).
      Playing the ball a second time after restarting play.
      Goalkeeper picking up the ball after already having released it to the ground.
      A player leaving the field of play without permission.
      Being closer than 1 yard/meter from a wall when a teammates free kick is kicked.

    important to note that pass back is an indirect freekick (so flicking it up and heading it to the keeper is a type of pass back), and that indirect freekicks can be awarded in the penalty area (e.g. they don't result in a penalty kick).

    • @frpgplayer
      @frpgplayer Před 2 lety +2

      If the ball is in play, sitting on the ball is legal. A player cannot use their hands, but may use other parts of the body to play the ball.
      However, sitting on the ball while the ball is in play can place the player in a dangerous position if other players attempt to play the ball.
      This may result in the referee deciding it is dangerous play, blowing the whistle, and identifying and signaling the foul and indirect free kick.
      If the ball was dead and say, it was a goal kick, corner kick, kick off, free kick, or dropped ball restart, then you need to check the LOTG.
      The following restarts state the ball is in play when it is kicked and moved: corner kick, goal kick, kick off, and free kicks.
      Dropped ball. The ball is in play when it touches the ground.
      So, sitting on a dropped ball is a legal touching of the ball. However, this places the player in a dangerous position as noted above.
      The other restarts require a kick. Therefore, sitting on the ball infringes the law. I would warn the player that continued sitting on the ball may result in a YC for delaying the restart.
      Note the restart doesn't change for a delaying YC. The restart remains the same. However, if the restart was a dropped ball, player sits on it, and opponent tries to kick it, then dangerous play may result in an IDFK for the opponent.

  • @andrewcoxon5214
    @andrewcoxon5214 Před rokem

    The referee will blow his whistle once and point to the goal of the team that made the foul, just like a normal foul. But before the kick is taken the referee will raise his arm and hand straight up in the air (like in the video) and will only put it down once the ball has been played/ has hit any other player.
    Next time you watch footy, the referee will do this on goal kicks, and off side free kicks, as these are by far the most common indirectly free kick…..!
    Its also quite interesting to read up on/watch Rugby Football penalties. This might give you a greater understanding as association (soccer) football and Rugby football share a common history.
    The way to think of indirect fouls are not personally against the other team. In rugby the most common is Passing the ball forward. This is restarted with a scrum, where both teams have a chance to win back possession before a goal can be scored. In association (soccer) the equivalent is the indirect freekick.
    Whilst I’m on that, a rule that rugby union still has is the mark or faircatch. (Also Aussie Footy and NFL)….
    Putting it simply if a player catches the ball without it bouncing they can take a direct free kick without being blocked….. this explains , in part, why a goal keeper cannot have their kick out of hands blocked.

    It amazes me that as a referee, players always think that flicking the ball back up to their own goalie is allowed. I called a indirect once for that happening and they were trying to argue against me that I was wrong and that it was allowed as past referees have always allowed it and never have called it against them. Luckily I knew that that isn't allowed.

    • @danbonnet8701
      @danbonnet8701 Před rokem

      Yes, an indirect free kick can be awarded for a foul inside the penalty box. This is not a penalty kick. Defenders can form a wall 10 yards from the spot of the kick. If the foul was committed inside the goal box the kick is taken from the line marking the goal box (6 yd line) and defenders can form a wall on the goal line.

    If the person who flicked up the ball then hit it with his head or chest to the keeper, where does the indirect freekick take place and who does it.
    And if the keeper holds it for more than six seconds who takes it and where?
    please awnser im training to be a referee and need this info

      1. the team who did NOT use abusive language is rewarded the indirect free kick
      2. The attacking team gets an indirect free kick in the box (or relative to where the keeper catches it)
      3. Indirect free kick outside the box

      He missed half of the other offences unfortunately. He mentioned 7 cases. There are 13. So I think I need to make a video of this. Correct, if a teammate to the free kick taker is closer than 1 yard to the wall when the free kick is taken the other team will get an indirect free kick.
      Your second question is not allowed either and results in a yellow card and indirect free kick. But it's the same as he mentioned in point 5.

      @@kandmlane5097 The way I know the game you cant intentionaly flick it up and head back, but you can head back if the ball is in the air organicaly and the GK can then pick it up. Straight pass is never allowed. Intentionaly passing to the GK where the GK picks it up is never allowed. But there are some loopholes here. If someone for example playes the ball infront of you and you have to streach your foot to get it and it "happened" to go in the direction of the GK then its very likely the ref wont blow on it. Also if it goes off your body specially when you have pressure from oponent and it bounces controlled from your thigh at close range its also considered allowed.
      In short, intentionaly playing the ball back with your foot when you have controll of the ball where you can see thats what you ment to do, is not allowed.

    If a player attempts to deceive the referee, such as feigning injury or pretending to be fouled, play stopped to caution results in an IDFK.
    Changing places with the keeper without the referee's permission. Play stopped for caution and restart is IDFK.
    Making unauthorized marks on the field while the ball is in play, if play stopped to caution, IDFK
    If a player was given permission to leave the field of play, but enters without permission and plays the ball, play is stopped to issue a card and IDFK.
    Verbally distracting an opponent during play, caution and IDFK.
    If a player leaves the field of play and commits an offence, restart is IDFK.
    On a PK, attacking player encroaches and there is no goal, IDFK
    PK, player kicks the ball backward, IDFK
    Illegal feint during pk, IDFK
    Wrong kicker during pk, IDFK
    Offside, restart IDFK
    Double touch on kick off, free kick, goal kick, and corner kick, IDFK
    If a player throws the ball to their goalkeeper and the keeper play the ball with their hands within the PA, IDFK
