3🔍 Why it matters — what to watch for
A defensive foul inside the box is a penalty (scored ~70–80% of the time); outside it's a direct free kick you can shoot straight from. Non-dangerous offences (such as a keeper handling a deliberate back-pass) give an indirect free kick: a goal only counts if another player touches it first. Enjoy the wall battles and trick routines too.
On the call you'll hear“Free kick just outside the box! And there's a player lying down behind the wall.”
