Bruh for some reason this is soooo satisfying

[–] Rc5tr0@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I don’t think I’ve ever seen an indirect free kick inside the penalty area for that. Now that I think about it, a backpass is basically the only thing I see them for.

This is turning into a Rugby match...

Anyone have a clip for what the indirect freekick was for?

[–] AaronQ94@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

All I know is that because a Ghana player was sitting on the ball.

Trying to remember the last time I saw an indirect free kick inside the box goal at a professional level lmao

[–] bgfan26@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

There were indirect free kicks in ayso? Hahaha

[–] ProfCedar@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Was gonna say, I absolutely haven't thought about this since I was about 13.

(England's first goal vs USA)[https://youtu.be/AGjLnFC7dxk?si=l56hPY9aBbGG59zd] (2:03 for the backpass) at the SheBelieves Cup in 2019. I was there and there were a lot of confused spectators because indirect free kicks in the box are so rare!

Happened to Chelsea about a year ago due to a back pass from the other team.

[–] bpinty@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I genuinely don’t remember the last time I saw an indirect free kick in the box. Fun goal

[–] AuspiciousOtter24@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Smart by Pulisic to pad the stats for the assist

[–] akbison24@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Indirect free kick schenigans are the best schenigans

[–] granttheginger@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I’m disappointed. It should be 7-0

[–] cahill48@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

That was dope AF

[–] skptcl_blvr@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Man really held onto the U4 tactic of sitting on the ball.

[–] Scan_This_Barco-de@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Been a very long time since i've seen an indirect free kick in the box. Let alone one get scored lmao.

I've been following this sport for 11 years now and I think indirect free kicks are witchcraft

[–] istiri7@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Ghana bro just laid down on the ball and said “nah I ain’t moving”

[–] orphan_of_Ludwig@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

What is the rule for the indirect freekick here?

[–] Danpool69@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

This is my first time seeing an indirect free kick. Had no idea what I was looking at until I saw this post and everyone named it. Thanks yall

[–] Mile114@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What led to this? Illegal backpass?

[–] TuyRS@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Ghanaian defender just decided to sit on the ball to stop play for some reason

[–] minerthreat15@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Anyone have the video of the call leading to the indirect free kick?

[–] GordoSF@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago
[–] HossBonaventura@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

That face at the end lmao

[–] Schenkspeare@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Absolutely unbelievable to me that Ghana looked like they had never seen an indirect free kick in the box. Should have had all 10 field players on the goal line with the keeper out front. Really simple to defend, crazy how no one had any idea what to do
