Relate the application of the football/soccer terms as part of the rules.

 Kick-off:
 Application: The game starts with a kick-off from the center spot. It also restarts
play after a goal, at the beginning of the second half, and at the start of each
extra time period if applicable. The team winning the coin toss chooses the goal
to attack, and the opposing team takes the first kick-off.
 Corner Kick:
Application: Awarded to the attacking team when the ball crosses the goal line
(but not into the goal) having last been touched by a defender. The kick is taken
from the corner of the field nearest to where the ball went out.
 Goal Kick:
Application: Awarded to the defending team when the ball crosses the goal line
(but not into the goal) having last been touched by an attacker. The ball is
kicked from anywhere within the goal area.
 Direct Free Kick:
Application: Awarded for serious fouls like kicking, tripping, or handball. The
fouled team can score directly from this kick without the ball touching another
player.
 Offside:
Application: A player is offside if they are nearer to the opponent’s goal line than
both the ball and the second-last opponent when the ball is played to them,
unless they are in their own half or level with the second-last opponent. Players
are penalized for offside if they become involved in active play.
 Indirect Free Kick:
Application: Given for less serious fouls or infringements like dangerous play or
goalkeeper violations. The ball must touch another player before a goal can be
scored.
 Penalty Kick:
Application: Awarded when a foul punishable by a direct free kick occurs within
the defending team’s penalty area. Only the kicker and goalkeeper are allowed
in the penalty area. All other players must stay outside until the ball is kicked.

 Yellow Card:
Application: Shown to a player for cautionable offenses such as unsporting
behavior, dissent, or persistent infringement of the rules. Accumulating two
yellow cards in one game results in a red card and ejection from the match
 Red Card:
Application: Shown for serious offenses such as violent conduct, serious foul
play, or receiving a second yellow card in one game. The player is sent off and
cannot be replaced.
 Substitution:
Application: Teams are allowed to replace players during the game, usually up to
three substitutions in official competitions. Substitutes must be reported to the
referee before entering the field.
 Penalty Shootout:
Application: Used to determine the winner if a match is tied after extra time.
Each team alternates taking penalty kicks from the penalty mark. The team with
the most goals after five rounds wins, continuing in sudden death if still tied.
 Foul:
 Application: Any unfair action by a player, such as pushing, kicking, or tripping
an opponent. Fouls result in a free kick or penalty kick for the opposing team.
 Handball:
Application: It is illegal for players (except the goalkeeper within their penalty
area) to deliberately handle the ball. An accidental touch is not usually
penalized unless it leads directly to a goal or an obvious chance.
 Free Kick:
Application: Free kicks are awarded for various fouls and infringements. Direct
free kicks can result in a goal if the ball is kicked directly into the goal. Indirect
free kicks require the ball to touch another player before a goal can be scored.
 Goalkeeper:
Application: The goalkeeper is the only player allowed to handle the ball within
the penalty area. They must wear a different color from their teammates,
opponents, and referees to distinguish themselves.
 Offside Trap:
Application: A defensive tactic where defenders move upfield just before an
opponent passes the ball, aiming to put the attacker in an offside position.
 Back Pass Rule:
Application: Goalkeepers cannot pick up the ball if it has been deliberately
kicked to them by a teammate. They must play it with their feet instead.
 Goal Area:
Application: The smaller box within the penalty area from which goal kicks are
taken. Goalkeepers often use this area for set plays like goal kicks.
