Afternoon all.
I have checked prior to asking but couldn’t find this.
I’ve consulted LOTG, which makes me feel it’s vague on this so apologies.
U13 cup game.
Standard shootout scenario.
On one of the spot kicks, keeper dives, but saves it with a foot. The ball bounces off this foot, then agonisingly slows and then rolls over the goal line. Keeper watches it in slow mo as it trickles over the goal line.
A parent then shouts why didn’t you grab it after saving it. (He definitely had time to).
Now the keeper shouts back (I can only touch it once).
Now LOTG says the ball is in play until it stops moving or otherwise.
I know the kicker can’t come and touch it again but does this apply to the keeper too?
