No, if it's a defender against an attacker, it is a penalty.
"Foul" is a term used to describe direct free kick offenses. Those are automatically promoted to a penalty kick while in the penalty area.
In soccer, fouls that result in indirect kicks include dangerous play, obstruction, and impeding the goalkeeper.
In soccer, a foul is when a player commits an unfair or illegal act against an opponent. Referees determine fouls by observing the game and enforcing the rules set by the governing body of soccer, FIFA. Fouls can result in free kicks, penalties, or even player ejections depending on the severity of the offense.
Indirect free kicks in soccer are awarded for less serious fouls, such as obstruction or dangerous play. Some examples include when a player plays in a dangerous manner, impedes an opponent without making contact, or commits a technical offense like offside. The main difference between indirect and direct free kicks is that for an indirect free kick, the ball must touch another player before a goal can be scored. This means that the ball cannot go directly into the goal from the kick, whereas in a direct free kick, a goal can be scored without the ball touching another player.
you get fouls by pushing, bad throw in's, and some other things... :)
looks for fouls and reffs

Yes there are fouls in U-10 soccer. A foul is a foul, no matter what age. Now fouls in U-10 soccer may not be on purpose like some of those in age groups above U-10, but they may be. Again though, a foul is a foul, no matter what the age.

Fouls in soccer are rule violations that result in a free kick or penalty kick for the opposing team. They can impact the game by giving the other team scoring opportunities, causing players to be cautioned or sent off, and disrupting the flow of play.
A player can get a red card in soccer for committing serious fouls, violent conduct, or receiving two yellow cards in the same game.
He tells the referee if it's offsides, judges if it's a corner kick or throw in, and fouls
When a player commits a foul in his own penalty area (the one surrounding the goal that he is protecting), such as pushing an opponent, a penalty kick is awarded to the attacking team, unless advantage is played. In some places, very young players do not use penalty kicks, such as U-8 games in the United States, and sometimes all free kicks are indirect.
