Question

Mention any five occasions when a player is NOT considered as offside.

Under what circumstances is a player not declared off-side, even though he is standing in the off-side position?

Write four situations when a player is not considered offside when he receives the ball.

Under which three situations is a player not considered off-side?

Answer 1

1. Attacker in an Offside Position but Not Interfering with Play: If an attacker is in an offside position but does not interfere with play or an opponent and does not touch the ball, they are not penalized for offside.
2. When the Ball Rebounds from the Goal Post: If an attacker is in an offside position and the ball rebounds off the goal post, they can be penalized for offside if they then interfere with play. However, if they do not interfere with play or touch the ball, they are not considered offside.
3. At the Time of a Corner Kick: A player cannot be offside if they receive the ball directly from a corner kick.
4. At the Time of a Throw-In: A player cannot be penalized for offside if they receive the ball directly from a throw-in.
5. When Level with the Second-Last Opponent: A player is not considered offside if they are level with the second-last opponent when the ball is played to them.
6. At the Time of a Goal Kick: A player cannot be penalized for offside if they receive the ball directly from a goal kick.
