There is very little that is special about an IFK - a goal can't be scored directly from it, and the referee should have his arm in the air until that second touch is taken to mean a goal can be scored.Thank you very much. Is there something about it written in the football laws? Because I couldn't find it in the FIFA laws pdf.
All the above is correct... however... in the real world...Hi,
can an indirect free kick be taken quickly without whistle blown? (inside the penalty box)
Thanks.
Firstly I had to make sure you had the number of 9's right. Not an easy one. Secondly you have to adjust your numbers, there is more than one in a billion chance that an offside IFK can be in or around your own penalty area.Maybe (we’ve seen on TV) the one in a billion case of of backpass IDFK taken quickly leading to goal. OK it is possible.
But in the other 99.99999% of cases IMHO be prepared to go and take control of any (non-offside) IDFK.
Great vid.Thank you all!
I found out that there is the video with that situation.
Should the goal be allowed? What's your opinion?
Firstly this was not a an offence IMO. Secondly I would not have intervened if it was. There would have been two mistake by the keeper, picking up the ball and then giving it to the opponent. A goal would have been fair.Thank you all!

I gave two PIADM IDFKs in a game last week - both nailed on - but the players went mental - at least in my games the players have no idea that falling on the ball between your legs, nearly kicking someone in the face or sliding in and missing causing a player to evade and lose the ball ... they have no idea that these might be IDFK offences, so they need help!
Yep. If contact it's direct. But no contact is not necessarily indirect. Last sliding example above is easily attempting to trip for me which is direct. You can also punish attempting to kick or strike with DFK.Agreed.
I have however, in the past given a DFK for overly aggressive sliding/lunging challenges that whilst they didn't connect, caused the other player to leap into the air for personal safety. I know that this is normally classed as OIADM but unless I'm mistaken, Law 12 doesn't say there has to be contact for a DFK rather than an IDFK to be awarded.

In pretty much every other respect, they can be treated exactly the same as a DFK.
Not necessarily true, you can lower your arm when it’s clear that a goal isn’t going to be scored so if an IFK from offside is going out to the side then I’ll lower my arm when the ball is still in the air
