Ludo*1 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 1 hour ago, The Master said: If a team decides to take a quick free kick, the normal rules around distance don’t apply. If your player thinks that taking a quick free kick is the best option then ends up firing it off an opposition player 3 yards away, that’s not the referee’s problem. Only if a player stands right on top of the ball in a deliberate attempt to prevent the quick free kick is there an issue. So to sum up, the only 'tube' was the Motherwell player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had Murray Davidson booked when Celtic blootered a quick free kick off his back as he walked away last week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianfranco Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 In my 25 year career watching football, I’ve never seen a referee play on from that situation until yesterday’s game. The Dundee player did stick out a leg to block it too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meeniedee Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 a quick free kick is one of my pet hates...how many times do you see a team try and take one only to make an arse of it then the ref pulls play back to allow them to take it again...they had a go at it unlucky play on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote If, when a free kick is taken, an opponent is closer to the ball than the required distance, the kick is retaken unless the advantage can be applied; but if a player takes a free kick quickly and an opponent who is less than 9.15 m (10 yds) from the ball intercepts it, the referee allows play to continue. However, an opponent who deliberately prevents a free kick being taken quickly must be cautioned for delaying the restart of play. https://www.theifab.com/laws/latest/free-kicks/#procedure You’re welcome. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
