Answer 4

The penalty kick taker may move the ball with his hands up until the referee blows his whistle. After the referee has blown the whistle the penatly taker is free to kick the ball when he desires. As soon as the player has kicked the ball then the rest of the players are allowed to try and gain possession of the ball. From a goalkeeper's view, he may only move off his line once the ball has been kicked, but can move sideways along the line before the ball is kicked. If the goalkeeper does move before the penalty has been taken then the referee will ask for the ball to re-placed onto the spot and the process then starts again.
