Unless the rules have changed during my self imposed exile, the referee, seeing what he deems as a foul or handball, awards a direct "freekick" against the offending player and his team, if the said offence happens to be inside the 18 yard box, otherwise known as the penalty area, this direct free kick is taken from a little white dot, about the width of a football, 12 yards from the goal line called the PENALTY spot. In the event of handball in this said 18 yard box, the ball is obviously in the very close proximity of the offence, other bloodywise it wouldn't be handball would it. In the event of a foul in this said 18 yard box, it wouldn't matter where the ball was on the field, it would be seen as an off the ball foul, and would be called just as if it happened on the half way line in any other off the ball incident...so if you make a tackle or kick an opponent in the nuts or any other such like in the penalty area, and the ball is anybloodywhere near to you or not, and the ref THINKS it was a foul..whether it was or not...it's a penalty, ok?. Or as stated, unless the rules have changed, and in this instance, I hope not. KC Red. ------------------------ Yahoo!
