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

An indirect free kick most often occurs when a goalkeeper breaks a rule. However, if there is an action considered a "dangerous play" within the penalty area, an indirect free kick is the result as opposed to a penalty kick. A good example of this would be when Cristiano Ronaldo attempted a header as an opponent was trying to kick the ball in a penalty area. The opponent's boot came within an inch of Ronaldo's head without touching him, but considering the danger present, an indirect free kick was awarded to his team.
