Question Number: 23851Law 12 - Fouls and Misconduct 8/29/2010RE: rec Under 16 Jerry Grayson of Everett, Wa usa asks...If a full back - passes the ball with his feet to the goalie and the goalie picks up the ball with his hands inside the penalty box what is the correct call? Is it a direct kick or indirect or a penalty kick? Answer provided by Referee Joe McHugh Hi Gerry
The goalkeeper may not touch the ball with his hand inside the penalty area after it has been deliberately kicked to him by a team mate. The correct call is an indirect free kick form where the GK touched the ball.
It cannot be a direct free kick or a penalty. Indeed there cannot be an attacking direct free kick inside the penalty area for any offence. It must be a PK.
