A corner kick is awarded in Association Football when the ball crosses the goal line without entering the goal itself, having last touched a defending player. A corner will also awarded if the ball enters the goal directly from a throw-in by a defending player, although instances of this are practically unheard of.
In the event of a corner kick being awarded, the ball is placed in one of the two corner quadrants in that half (usually corresponding the location at which the ball left the field). An attacking player restarts play by kicking the ball, and will usually take the opportunity to deliver a cross into the penalty area, although he may also decide to play a short pass to a teammate or even to take a direct shot at goal (applying swerve as appropriate - this again is very rare, and such goals are usually seen to be flukes - the result of a misplaced cross).
The rules applicable in the taking of a corner kick are similar to those of a direct free kick. The taker may not touch the ball following the kick until it has been touched by another player (on either team). Defending players must stand a minimum of 10 yards from the ball at the time the kick is taken.
