In soccer, the goal box is a smaller area inside the penalty box where the goalkeeper can handle the ball, while the penalty box is a larger area where fouls committed by the defending team can result in a penalty kick for the attacking team.
The main differences are that a penalty is only taken from the penalty spot inside the box, and a free kick is taken from where the offence took place, and can happen anywhere on the pitch unless it was a penalty. The opposition is allowed to put up a wall of players to defend the free kick, in a penalty it is only the penalty taker against the goalkeeper.
