Watched an interesting game today between Argentina and Scotland.
At one time, Scotland led by 3 – 0. Argentina came back with two of its own, so 2 -3. Then towards the dying minutes, Argentina was awarded a penalty kick which the Scottish goalie blocked, but was considered inappropriate and the penalty was ordered to be retaken. This time, Argentina put the ball into the net for a 3 – 3 draw.
I totally agree with Referee’s decision as the Scottish goalie move her feet in front of the goal line.
Soccer rules stipulate that when a penalty kick is being taken, the goalie can only move the feet away from the goal line AFTER the penalty kicker has touched the ball. However, all the soccer referees seem to have forgotten this basic rule.
Case in point was 1999’s WWCS final between USA and China. USA was host country and it was held in LA, but China was the favourite to win the championship. When the penalty kick was being taken, the US goalie moved forward by almost 5 yards, narrowing the gap, and therefore blocked the penalty kick. The referee said nothing, most likely due to inexperience, and the goal was allowed.
From then on, all WWCS goalies violated this rule time and time again. Finally, video review + 3 reviewers are introduced in 2019, and this time this basic rule was withheld. Bravo!
The following is 1999’s violation of this rule by US goalie in 1999 WWSC China Vs USA’s Penalty Kick:
