Oct 1, 2016 at 10:50 | comment | added | Reinstate Monica 2331977 | @Mormegil - I gave up on replying at the time, but that's not entirely correct - they aren't expansions on the last point, as the last point only refers to offences for which play is stopped to issue a caution or send-off. They are things like touching a free-kick twice, throwing objects onto/off the field, re-entering without permission etc. These situations are not common, but are for from hypothetical or funny. As there has been a big rewrite of the Laws, I decided to put together a complete list. See my answer for details. | |

Apr 11, 2014 at 9:51 | comment | added | Mormegil | Right; you basically refer to expanding on the last point, even though I could imagine even different (hypothetical and quite funny) situations. :-) But I think I won’t complicate the answer any more. Thanks for the suggestions. | |
Apr 11, 2014 at 5:02 | comment | added | Reinstate Monica 2331977 | @Mormegil You've only covered Law 12. There are a few other examples of reasons to award an indirect free kick in Laws 3, 4, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 as well. | |
Apr 10, 2014 at 11:18 | comment | added | Mormegil | @studro: Thanks, but I am not sure what you mean by missing examples. Specific instances, obviously. Specific “types” (e.g. “what counts as ‘playing in a dangerous manner’”), sure. But the list of offences is exhaustive, directly from the Laws of the Game. | |
Apr 10, 2014 at 0:06 | comment | added | Reinstate Monica 2331977 | This should be marked as the correct answer as it explains the concept - although you've still missed a lot of examples of offences. I don't believe listing them is helpful as there are so many. | |

Feb 21, 2014 at 12:03 | comment | added | Mormegil | Oh, yeah, definitely. While quite rare, this is definitely not unheard of. A quick example found using Google: youtube.com/watch?v=9gnOfzQE8nY – note the confused&mistaken title and some comments. This was an indirect free kick (direct free kick is obviously impossible inside penalty area) awarded for playing in a dangerous manner (playing with a foot very high and near the attacker’s head but not hitting him, which would be a penalty kick). | |
Feb 21, 2014 at 10:26 | comment | added | Yaitzme | Has there been any instance of a team being awarded an indirect free kick inside the penalty box ? (other than the goalie reasons, I mean) | |
Feb 21, 2014 at 9:32 | comment | added | Mormegil | @Yaitzme: No. Holding, tripping, striking, … etc., which is “careless, reckless, or using excessive force“ are offences warranting a direct free kick (or penalty kick if inside penalty area). Impeding the progress of an opponent “means moving into the path of the opponent to obstruct, block, slow down or force a change of direction by an opponent when the ball is not within playing distance of either player”. And this warrants just an indirect free kick. | |
