A penalty kick is awarded when a player commits a foul in the penalty box which is clearly visible on the field. The penalty is given to the team against who the foul was commited and a player from that team then takes a kick from the penalty spot.

Who can be in the penalty area when a penalty kick is taken?

When will the referee rule a re punt?

The referee in football doesn't rule the re-kick rather the team that reaps the benefit of a penalty and chooses to re-kick. For instance; if a punt only goes 20 yards on a 4th and 12 punt and the defense was offsides; the referee just calls the penalty; the kicking team selects to enforce the penalty or re-kick. My answer - a referee seldom rules a punt to be rekicked. The kicking team will have that luxury ONLY if a penalty flag was thrown and in their favour.


If an attacker runs with the ball into his opponents penalty area the ball runs out of play as he is fouled by a defender as the ball was out of play should the referee award a penalty?

The referee must decide whether the ball exited the field before or after the foul.If the foul happened first, then a penalty kick would be awarded.If the ball exited the field first, then a goal kick or corner kick is awarded depending on who touched it last. It cannotbe a foul, as the ball was already out of play. It could be misconduct depending on the severity.


Is penalty kick awarded even when the player unintentionally handle the ball?

This issue revolves solely around the opinion of the referee, if he believes the ball 'hit the players hand' instead of an intentional act he will not award a penalty. Usually if the player turns their back or the ball hits their hand when they try to protect themselves, a penalty will not be awarded.


Why can attacking players not be offside at a penalty kick?

Proper placement of players for the kick dictates that a player may not be ahead of the ball. If they are, the referee will not blow the whistle to start play.


In soccer penalty kicks if the player kicks the ball before the referee blows the whisle what happens?

It all depends on the referee on the day. One thing for certain is, the penalty must be retaken, and the player who took the penalty may get a yellow card. It is however very unlikely a player will take a penalty before the whistle. It is more common in free kicks. If a free kick is taken before the whistle is blown the free kick must be retaken and again the player may get a yellow card. You will notice before a free kick or penalty the referee will hold up his whistle and show it to the players and say wait for my whistle.

When does ref give direct or indirect free kick?

The referee may award a free kick for certain infractions of the IFAB's Laws of the Game (the rules the world plays by), such as fouls and misconduct (Law 12) and Offside (Law 11). The referee will award a direct free kick if play is stopped for kicking or attempting to kick an opponent, tripping or attempting to trip an opponent, striking or attempting to strike an opponent, charging an opponent, jumping at an opponent, pushing an opponent, holding an opponent, and deliberately handling the ball (except a goalkeeper in his or her own penalty area). An indirect free kick is awarded for the Offside infraction, dangerous play, offensive encroachment on a penalty kick, if play is stopped to issue a sanction for misconduct, certain goalkeeper handling offenses, and certain infractions relating to substitutes.
