When a player makes a foul or an offence, the opposing side receives a direct free kick. Here are four scenarios in which a direct free kick is awarded:
- Using the ball purposefully (save for the goalkeeper within their own penalty area).
- Kicking or attempting to kick an opponent intentionally.
- Attempting to trip an opponent with the leg or foot.
- Pushing an opponent with too much force.
