because it is actually called football not soccer. it's the Americans who called it soccer, because they decided to invent their own football, which is more like Rugby. And they shouldn't call it football, as they handle the ball (if you can call it that, considering it's not even round) with their hands more than feet. So why not ask the Americans why their version of football is not called a handball or something along these lines? lol
No you can't if you are forward of defense. Only the goalie is allowed to use their hands in soccer.
the goalie
The goalie is the only player who can use his hands during play in soccer.
The goal keeper.
no that is false
Soccer and hockey are two sports where only the goalie is allowed to use his or her hands.
The goalie is only allowed to use their hands when inside the 18 yard line (the big goal box which they are protecting).
The goalie is the only person that can touch the ball during the soccer game unless it is a throw in then the defence can use their hands to throw it in. or the ref
Yes, but only in his own penalty area.
Any part except the hands and arms are allowed.
goalies in soccer have i major objective: stop all balls that come near the goal. the goalies can touch the ball with their hands and feet, but arent allowed to leave their white box painted around the goal.
The goalie is the only player on the field who can use their hands, but only inside their 18 yard box. The other players are only allowed to use their hands if they are doing a throw in.
