From where the ref and assistant are would you expect them to clearly see this? – at South West, England
Not over the line apparently🥴

A player (Team A) gains possession of the ball and starts a quick counter-attack. After that, a substitute of their team enters the field of play and distracts an opposing defender’s attention from play. Team A then scores a goal when the substitute is still on the field of play.

Substitutes of both teams were a few metres on the field of play when a goal was scored. They did not interfere with play. What is the correct decision? Find out more: bit.ly/GoalScoredWithExtraPe… Download the app: bit.ly/Laws_App_

This is the reason why it is important that we know law and competition rules. Simple things that can land us in hot water.
A referee wrongly used sin bins in an FA Cup tie causing it to have to be replayed. Holyport FC had beaten Hartpury University 2-1 on Saturday, but a Hartpury player was sin binned late on.

Before a penalty kick is taken, the defending team goalkeeper approaches the kicker and unfairly distracts them to delay the taking of the kick. What is the correct decision? bit.ly/PenaltyProcedure bit.ly/_Sanctions Download the app: bit.ly/Laws_App_

The goalkeeper hangs onto the crossbar, touches the ball and prevents a goal from being scored. What is the correct decision? bit.ly/IndirectFreeKick_ bit.ly/_Sanctions bit.ly/RefereeDecision Download the official app: bit.ly/LawsAppAndroid bit.ly/LawsApp_iOS
