A free kick is the result of a foul or an offsides. An indirect free kick means that the team taking the kick can only score if a teammate ON THEIR OWN TEAM touches the ball before it goes over the goal line. A direct free kick means that you may score without any of you teammates touching the ball. A Penalty kick is when a foul occurs in the goalie box. Its just the goalie and a shooter for a PK
