And for us, Packie Bonner`s penalty saved at Italia 90 against Romania`s Daniel Timofte is not only part of the history of Irish football, but also a memorable part of that country`s wider history on the international stage. During the 1990 World Cup, it was common for teams to return the ball to their goalkeeper, who was allowed to pick it up with his hands according to the previous rules, slowing down the game and giving the defense an easier option in case of a problem. In short, your league is right – tackling from behind is not a foul, but committing a foul by attacking from behind, at least in the United States, is enough to show a yellow. As you can see, tackling another player from behind is acceptable in football, as long as the tackle is made in a way that respects the rules of the game. A setback in football is usually the result of a player trying to take the ball from an opposing player by recklessly sliding from behind with excessive force. A foul in football is defined as any act that the referee deems to be reckless, negligent or with excessive force. The difficulty of performing a duel from behind is the main reason why this action is often referred to as a fault. The angle from which players approach the tackle makes it difficult to legally engage without tripping the opponent or ruthlessly executing the game. In addition, tackles from behind can be very dangerous, as the opposing player cannot see the incoming tackle and adjust accordingly.
This risk to player safety means that most tackles from behind are called fouls. However, not all tackles from behind are called fouls, as it is possible to slide around the player and make controlled contact with the ball. Over the years, there have been many occasions when I have tried to attack another player from behind, only to topple my opponent and take a free kick for my team. And it`s never fun when another player lands on you! Being able to tackle is an essential skill in football. While there are many ways to approach another player from behind, one area is one where people usually have a lot of questions. In this article, I would like to give you the answer to the question of whether a player can attack from behind or not. I actively lead the “little boys” and a tackle from behind is 99.999% a foul with at least one yellow card, if not a dismissal. As many have said, professionals know how to do it, but we need to teach children that duels from behind are dangerous in most cases.
Therefore, a warning will at least remind them so that they do not do it again. The International Football Federation amended Bill 12 to simply say “attack an opponent” in a reckless, reckless or undue force manner, leaving the decision to the referee. They added penalties as serious misconduct for excessively dangerous duels. Nothing in the laws provides for sanctions for disputes on the ground. Here in section 7 of the AYSO, sliding tackle by the U12 division is not allowed for safety reasons. In a tournament match during the Select season, my striker beats the last defender, leaving only the goalkeeper. When my attacker reaches the penalty area, the latter defender catches him from behind and catches him, planting him in the ground (note that I tackle.. as in the NFL.. not even a slipped tackle). The striker gets injured, this defender comes down from him and takes the ball, and the referee continues the game in which the other team scored a little later, with my striker still injured on the ground. No red card, no penalty, no interruption of play to check the injured player. No, nothing! Since no calls were made, other players on this team decided they could get away with a dirty game, like elbowing my players` heads while jumping towards them and attacking from behind, to name a few.
And they were right. No calls! As an arbitrator, I wonder what is wrong with this arbitrator. As a parent, I am very upset. As a coach, I was about to take my team off the field for safety reasons when time was up. So I spoke to this referee, and he admitted that this was his first game as a referee and that he wasn`t even certified (although the tournament required teams of certified referees). As there was an injured player, I had to fill out an injury report and discuss the incident with the league. The result was that I was reprimanded for not supporting a new volunteer and that, as an experienced referee, I should have remembered that this was my first time. Nothing about player safety or the requirement for a certified referee. And I wasn`t the only team going through situations like this.
Another team had attacked his big scissor slide of a smaller defensive player, had this defender (with his legs wrapped around one leg) shot a few meters from the attacker and still no calls. 5. If a defensive player attacks the offensive player but arrives the ball first, there is no foul. This is also false. Just because you get the ball first doesn`t mean you have carte blanche to eliminate the player. A tackle, where the ball is hit first, can still be called a foul if the tackle was made in a dangerous way. However, if you put the player in front of the ball, it`s still a foul. But even if you get the ball first, if you then get the player in a dangerous way, you can still be called for a foul.
I love responding to readers` comments – that`s part of what makes writing a blog fun. But sometimes I find a comment and/or the answer justifies a full message, so don`t be surprised if you ask an intriguing question and it lands on page 1 “I have the ball” is not a defense against reckless or excessive challenge. 😀 It`s about how much power you power and how you attack, and whether it puts your opponent at risk. Before, during and after the sequence of a ground challenge with a potential foul, the referee must pay attention to the players and the game situation. The possible malicious intent of the player performing the challenge is significant. The past in this game (or any other well-known game), the skill level, and the circumstances of the given situation are important in assessing intent. Most often, tackles slipped from behind are the result of a defender being hit by the attacker. This immediately makes the defender more aggressive. Ground challenges on the side or forward are often the result of a deep defense where the first defender could not stop the attack, or passing balls to an unmarked attacker. This leads to challenges and duels that are initiated at a greater distance from the offensive game. These challenges are often completed with more speed and less control by the attacking player.
The results of the foul and the injury of the attacking player must be taken into account by the referee. Often, these situations can lead to serious injuries due to reckless gambling and excessive violence.
