The rules of the game are trying to get the ball into your opponent’s goal by passing through your various teammates as you advance towards your opponent’s goal. While three umpires control the game, one is the main referee on the pitch, and the other referees are known as the linesmen who are stationed on the touchlines. It is the job of the main referee to spot any foul that occurs on the field from the players. For ordinary fouls committed, the referee has the right to issue a yellow card to the player as a warning sign. In contrast, For unusual fouls that are serious, the referee has the right to give a red card to the player that committed the foul, which means the referee will send the player off the field of play, reducing his team members to 10.
In most cases, when a team is red-carded, the other team capitalizes on this opportunity to inflict more damage on the team that is one man down. The job of the linesman is to indicate players who are found offside, advise the main referee on football decisions involving players infringement on the pitch, indicating when the ball is out of play, and deciding which team gets to resume play. The two linesmen are stationed at both sides of the pitch.
Scoring in Football
Scoring involves getting the ball into your opponent’s goal the right way by various means. Scoring a goal can include using your head or your feet. There are multiple ways of scoring in football; you can score via shooting the ball into the net from any position; you can score via penalty, which means you have to face off with the goalkeeper and kick the ball past him. You can also score with a freekick from whichever angle the referee blows a foul that isn’t in the penalty box. Any means of scoring with your hand, arm, or shoulder is prohibited in football. Allowing the ball to touch your hand is considered an offense by the referee. It is only the goalkeepers of both teams involved in the game that has the right to touch the ball with their hands because they have to catch the ball for their respective teams to stop it from going into the net. Other players in the field of play can only pick the ball with their hands when the ball goes out of play, and it needs to be thrown back into play. (more…)
