    The only thing it is for is to ensure players are ten yards from the penalty spot when a penalty is taken.

    This is the second time I've quoted FIFA's Officials Laws of the game tonight!
    FIFA.com OFFICIAL LAWS OF THE GAME wrote:
    Law 1 - The Field of Play

    The Penalty Area


    * A penalty area is defined at each end of the field as follows:
    Two lines are drawn at right angles to the goal line, 16.5 m (18 yds) from the inside of each goalpost. These lines extend into the field of play for a distance of 16.5 m (18 yds) and are joined by a line drawn parallel with the goal line. The area bounded by these lines and the goal line is the penalty area.

    * Within each penalty area, a penalty mark is made 11 m (12 yds) from the midpoint between the goalposts and equidistant to them. An arc of a circle with a radius of 9.15 m (10 yds) from each penalty mark is drawn outside the penalty area.

    Its a pitty referee's don't follow the laws of the game in respect of the following
    It is an infringement to enter the penalty area before the kick has been taken.

    The goalkeeper also infringes the Laws if he moves from his goal line before the ball has been kicked.

    If A team-mate of the player taking the kick enters the penalty area or moves in front of or within 9.15 m (10 yds) of the penalty mark:

    *the referee allows the kick to proceed.

    *If the ball enters the goal, the kick is retaken.

    *If the ball does not enter the goal, the referee stops play and restarts
    the match with an indirect free kick to the defending team.

    *If the ball rebounds from the goalkeeper, the crossbar or the goalpost and is touched by this player, the referee stops play and restarts the match with an indirect free kick to the defending team.


    A team-mate of the goalkeeper enters the penalty area or moves in front of or within 9.15 m (10 yds) of the penalty mark:


    *the referee allows the kick to proceed.

    *if the ball enters the goal, a goal is awarded.

    *if the ball does not enter the goal, the kick is retaken.

    A player of both the defending team and the attacking team infringe the Laws of the Game:

    *the kick is retaken.

    I was at a semi final last week and the attacking team had 3 players in the box before the ball was played and when I told the ref itshould be retaken he looked at me blankly with no idea of why?

    I know we'r stuck for Ref's but the laws of the game aren't that long to remember:rolleyes:

    Yeh, Dida did the exact same thing in the CL final two years before then. Its an absolute joke, and of all the peno shootouts for it to happen in, it should not happen in the CL shootouts, but it has twice in recent years.

    Of course he can send off a goalie - it would be very difficult to be sent off during a shoot-out but definitely possible.

    An outfield player would have to go in goal.

    I always wondered about the D but always forgot to ask. Is there any reason European referees don't use the spray can like they do in the Brazilian league? If you haven't seen it, whenever there's a freekick in a dangerous area, the ref walks the 10 yards and sprays a line of the ground that the wall has to stay behind. It stops that pathetic inching forward that so many teams are prone to do these days.

    It happened this season in Germany. I couldn't find any footage on the net at the time.

    never heard about that one.
    if a substitution was left could he be replaced though?
