Hi there, attached is a clip from the UEFA RAP 2024-1 E1 sample. Blue and while are contending for a ball in the air. The recommended decision is a yellow card for being reckless. However, I am confused which side it is awarded. It looks to me there could be 2 interperations, both leading to a...

I've made a new GIF. The recommended decision is a red card + free kick. My understanding is that the pull and push happened outside of the box have already qualified for a DOGSO, so no advantage was played, thus no penalty.

Thanks I looked at that thread, it seems quite different. I uploaded a gif version here. The foul on messi happened clearly outside of penalty area, but the foul on UEFA RAP sample consists of 3 parts and the last part happened in the penalty area.

The defender touched the ball first, but it was a faint touch, still the ball was in the forward's possession, then defender tripped down the forward, penalty. If the defender got to clear the ball, the no penalty. My two cents.

It's an example from here: https://www.dutchreferee.com/refereeing-assistance-programme/. It seems to be separate fouls. I know from the laws of game that if it is a continuous holding ending in the penalty area, then without any doubt a penalty kick should be given. However, in the case of...

White 47 initially fouled outside, and kept committing fouls inside the penalty area. Red card is without any doubt for DOGSO, but why only a free kick is awarded? Can we consider that advantage is played and then award a penalty for the last foul in the penalty area? Thanks for any comments...

No they were not appealing, but the attacker was flying. I didn't call it at the time, but in retrospect I feel it a bit dangerous and I am wondering whether it should be a free kick. I've seen many cases where a defender makes a slide tackle and touches the attacker's leg, because the foot can...

hi there, suppose this tackle: - strong/harsh - on the ground - strait leg - studs up towards the ball also towards the opponent but - catch the ball spot on - does not touch the opponent Is it still a foul because there is a strong likelihood that it will hit the other opponent? Thanks!

hi @OldNavyRef , can I ask does "4 was playing him on" mean number 4 of the defending team is sitting deep which makes the attacking player onside? If it is the case then why flag is needed? Remembering the back 4s number will definitely help. Thanks!

Thanks for all the advices. There are several practices that I have already employed: 1. side on to the pitch 2. focus on the offside line and use the sound to tell when the ball is played by the last attacking player. 3. concentrate and mark the second last defender --- I can do it most of the...

hi there, I am a pretty new referee. I've been AR for several matches. However, I find it quite difficult to focus both on the offside line and the ball in play. Sometimes the strikers and defenders are basically on the same line so I have to keep focused, but then I can't focus on the ball and...
