A foul in any sport is a violation of that sport’s code of conduct in some way, and each sport punishes foul play in a unique way. Soccer defines a foul as an unfair action that a player commits against an opposing player or the opposing team during the course of a match. The penalty varies depending on the nature of the offense, but it will be a direct or indirect free kick. To be a foul, the act must occur on the field, while the ball is in play. Failure to do so may constitute misconduct and may even justify a warning or expulsion, but it will not be a foul.
For some minor fouls, the penalty is an indirect kick, which means that the ball must be touched by a second player before the attacking team can score. These fouls are often referred to as “technical fouls” because most are not the direct result of foul play, but are violations of one of soccer’s procedural rules, which are generally designed to keep play flowing or avoid criminal offenses occur. One such “technical foul” is the offense of dangerous play, commonly known as “dangerous play.”
Playing dangerously
Among the referee’s main concerns is the safety of the players. As a result, a referee will penalize dangerous play by awarding an indirect kick to the other side.
The rules do not precisely define what is meant by “playing in a dangerous manner” except to yield to the referee’s referee. Commonly accepted notions of “dangerous play” include high kicks near other players, violently kicking the ground with nearby players, tackling the ball with exposed cleats or when in the goalkeeper’s possession, even exposing oneself to risk at times. damage, if you cause someone to refrain from playing ball for fear of hurting their overly adventurous opponent. However, it is only a foul if it puts an opponent at risk. A single high kick in midfield puts no one in danger, while the same kick in a crowded penalty area can very well. And while many spectators get nervous when a player on the ground kicks the ball, it is only a “dangerous play” when doing so puts the legs and feet of opposing players at risk.
At higher levels of play, where talented players are used to taking greater risks during the course of a match, this offense is usually called only if it causes the opponent to react by trying to avoid contact. In most youth games, and many amateur adult games, everyone expects the referee to impose a higher level of sanity on the players than their enthusiasm might suggest exists.
