Sorry, I am having a brain freeze here.

Offside given inside the 6 yard box against red striker. Blue goalkeeper takes the IFK to blue defender who controls the ball before it leaves the penalty area.

Do IFK's for offside inside the 6 yard box or indeed the penalty area need to leave the penalty area before a defender can touch the ball?

Just add defending free kicks from anywhere inside the penalty area and goal kicks : Leaves the penalty area INTO the field of play M Marve

If it's booted out across the goal line, but BEFORE it leaves thepenalty area, retake mate..........piece of cake being a referee!
