Ask a Soccer Referee
From the U.S. Soccer Communicaitons Center – March 14, 2003
As part of our continuing effort to service and educate our membership, each Thursday the U.S. Soccer Communications Center will send out an informative article from one of its departments. Once a week, you will receive an article/paper/essay in your inbox that will hopefully enhance your enjoyment and knowledge of the game of soccer - on and off the field.
This week, we examine an exciting new component of ussoccer.com
Have you ever had a pressing question about the Laws of the Game? Wondered if the call the referee made in last Sunday’s match was correct? Now you have a place to turn to … ussoccer.com’s “Ask a Soccer Referee” (http://www.ussoccer.com/referees/default.sps?iType=220&icustompageid=6056).
If you have a question about the Laws of the Game, simply send it to askareferee@ussoccer.org, where experienced referees will answer your question. While only select questions will be answered on ussoccer.com, every other question submitted will be answered privately via email.
Jim Allen (National Instructor Staff/National Assessor) and Dan Heldman (National Instructor Staff) answer each question submitted to ussoccer.com’s “Ask a Soccer Referee”. Alfred Kleinaitis, U.S. Soccer’s Manager of Referee Education, also contributes, ensuring the accuracy of each answer.
Each week a new batch of questions will be answered. The “Ask a Soccer Referee” section of ussoccer.com contains current questions and answers, as well as an archive of past question and answers. Included among the current topics are: Deliberate vs. Accidental Handling, Obvious Goalscoring Opportunities, Players Wearing Glasses and Unplayable Fields.
A few examples from ussoccer.com’s “Ask a Soccer Referee” archive …
LEAVING THE FIELD TO AVOID BEING CALLED OFFSIDE
Question:
An attacker is dribbling the ball down the field and has reached just outside the Penalty Area, past all of the defenders, one of his team mates is standing between the goal line and the top of the goal area. The goalkeeper is in the same general area. Question: If the attacker standing between the goal line and the goal area leaves the field of play, in between the goal posts, to remove himself from an offside position, after the kick was taken, but in the opinion of the referee interferes with the goalkeeper, what is the correct decision for a restart? What about if he's not interefering with the goalkeeper? Is it a cautionable offense for him to leave the field over the goal line to remove himself from an offsides position? At what point do we consider whether it was in dynamic play or not? Is the restart a kick off, after a goal being awarded? What is the referee to do? What If the attacker leaves the field of play over the goal line between the goal posts, before kick was taken, what is the proper restart?
Answer (February 24, 2003):
No, it is not a cautionable offense to leave the field to avoid the offside. However, if, in the opinion of the referee, the attacker who has left the field to avoid being called offside interferes with any opponent, then he must be cautioned for unsporting behavior and shown the yellow card. The correct restart for interfering with play while off the field is a dropped ball at the place where the ball was when the offense occurred, bearing in mind the special circumstances described in Law 8. And if the ball was still in play when the interference occurred, then whatever happened did occur during dynamic play.
If the referee believes that the player was not interfering with an opponent, then no offense has occurred and the goal is scored; restart with a kick-off.
RESTARTS
Question:
Several questions have arisen during the recent high school season among our referees. I have not been able to find definitive answers, and in some cases, I have found conflicting answers.
1. Away from the ball, asst. referee observes two players tangled up; defender strongly pushes offensive player to the ground in the penalty box; ball is at midfield when referee notices flag and blows whistle to stop play; asst. feels a caution is needed for defender. What is the proper restart and where should it take place?
2. Similar question. During play, defender complains to referee about previous call. Referee feels a caution is needed. The ball is 20 yards away at this point. What is the call and the restart? Does it make any difference if the dissent takes place in the defender's penalty box or if the ball is in the penalty box?
3. Ball hits the corner flag as it goes over the touch line not the goal line. Throw in or corner kick?
Answer (February 15, 2003):
We cannot presume to answer for games played under high school rules, but if these incidents had occurred in USSF-affiliated games, the answers would be:
1. Penalty kick for the attacking team.
2. If the referee stops play to deal with dissent, the restart would be an indirect free kick taken from where the offense occurred, bearing in mind the special circumstances described in Law 8.
3. Throw-in.
INTERFERENCE AT A THROW-IN
Question:
The ball leaves the field of play for a throw in to team B. A Player from team A stands near the touchline about 1 meter away from the line, and at this point is standing still with arms at the side. As the player is about to take the throw in the defending player jumps up and down with his hands at his sides. The player delivers the throw into the F.O.P. to a team-mate. The referee stops the game, cautions the defending player and restarts with a indirect free kick from where the player is standing.
Now for my question. I am happy with stopping the game, the caution, but is the restart correct?????? Should it not be restart with the throw-in as technically the offence occurred before the throw-in was completed, even though the referee did not blow for a infringement until the ball was well into the F.O.P.?
Answer (February 9, 2003):
If the referee stops the game to deal with interference BEFORE the throw-in, the correct restart after the caution/yellow card for unsporting behavior is a retake of the throw-in. If the former thrower is prevented from participating in play AFTER the throw-in is completed, the referee must stop the game, caution and show the yellow card to the offender for unsporting behavior, and restart with an indirect free kick from the place where the misconduct occurred.
The referee must exercise management skills in such cases. What will work? What is appropriate for this match at this time? What will buy the most for the referee? Indeed, there is a third option -- which is to be proactive and take preventive action to avoid the misconduct entirely (mostly for younger, less competitive, or "friendlier" matches).

USA vs. Argentina … 1930
1930 WORLD CUP DREAM ENDS AS
ARGENTINA ELIMINATES USA IN SEMIFINALS
MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay (July 26, 1930) - After posting back-to-back shutout victories over Belgium (3-0) and Paraguay (3-0) in first round group play, the dream of an appearance in the 1930 FIFA World Cup championship game ended for the U.S. Men’s National Team in the semifinals as they dropped a 6-1 decision to Argentina on July 26, in Montevideo, Uruguay.
The crowd of 80,000 at the Centenario Stadium witnessed a strong first-half effort by the USA against Argentina, which had recently earned the silver medal at the 1928 Olympic Games.
With no substitutions at the time, the Americans were hit with injuries during the first half encounter as goalkeeper James Douglas twisted his knee and midfielder Andrew Auld played most of the game with a rag stuffed in his mouth due to a head injury. The U.S. were reduced to 10 men after defender Ralph Tracey suffered a serious leg injury forcing him out of the game at halftime.
Despite the injuries the USA were only down 1-0 at the intermission after midfielder Luis Monti scored in the 20th minute for Argentina.
Argentina pulled away from the weakened U.S. squad in the second half scoring five consecutive times in the final 29 minutes of the match for a 6-0 route. Forward Guillermo Stabile and midfielder Carlos Peucelle each scored twice, while midfielder Alejandro Scopelli added another for Argentina.
The lone American goal came with 60 seconds remaining in the game as midfielder James Brown avoided a shutout and got the U.S. on the scoreboard for the 6-1 final.
Argentina went on to lose to Uruguay in a thrilling 1930 final, 4-2, while the Americans were schedule to meet semifinal loser Yugoslavia in the third-place match. However, the Europeans decided not to play the game and the U.S. was thus awarded a third-place finish in the inaugural World Cup.

5. U.S. Men Draw World Cup Champs Brazil, Cameroon, Turkey For FIFA Confederations Cup In June
U.S. Faces Two World Cup Semifinalists In France;
Arena’s Side Finished 3rd in 1999 Confederations Cup in Mexico
CHICAGO (February 12, 2003) — The U.S. Men’s National Team was drawn into Group B and will face Brazil, Cameroon and Turkey at the sixth FIFA Confederations Cup from June 18-29 in France. The FIFA Confederations Cup draw took place today prior to France’s friendly international against the Czech Republic at the Stade de France in Paris.
The U.S. opens the tournament against two World Cup semifinalists, facing Turkey on June 19 in St. Etienne at 7 p.m. local time (1 p.m. ET), and then taking on Brazil on June 21 in Lyon at 9 p.m. local time (3 p.m. ET). The U.S. concludes group play against Cameroon on June 23 in Lyon at 9 p.m. local time (3 p.m. ET). The top two teams from each group advance to the semifinals on June 26. The third-place match is scheduled for June 28, and the final takes place on June 29 in Paris.
“We are arguably in the toughest group in the Confederations Cup, and it will be a great challenge for the team,” said U.S. head coach Bruce Arena from Jamaica, where the U.S. is preparing for tonight's match with the Reggae Boyz. “We are excited about facing two opponents that are relatively unknown to us in Cameroon and Turkey, and, of course, playing against a familiar opponent in Brazil. Overall, it will be a great challenge for us and it will serve as great preparation for World Cup qualifying in 2004.”
The U.S. has played Brazil ten times previously, managing only one win, a memorable 1-0 surprise in the 1998 Gold Cup. Meanwhile the U.S. is relatively unfamiliar with their other two first round opponents, playing Turkey only once - drawing 1-1 in Istanbul on September 4, 1991- and having never played Cameroon.
The U.S. has played in two previous Confederations Cup Tournaments, finishing third at the inaugural event in 1992, and finishing second in 1999 in Mexico. Arena guided the team to some of their most impressive results at Mexico ‘99. In Mexico, the U.S. finished second in a group that included New Zealand, Brazil and Germany on the strength of a commanding 2-0 win over Germany in the deciding match. The U.S. then lost 1-0 to Mexico in a thrilling overtime affair at Estadio Azteca, before bouncing back and topping Saudi Arabia 2-0 in the third-place match.
France won the 2001 FIFA Confederations Cup, played in Korea/Japan as a dress rehearsal for the 2002 World Cup, and Mexico became the first host team to lift the Cup when they topped Brazil in the final in 1999.
The field at the Confederations Cup is comprised of the six confederation champions (Cameroon, Colombia, France, Japan, New Zealand and the USA), the World Cup Champions (Brazil) and a guest team (Turkey). Six of the nations fielded sides at the 2002 FIFA World Cup in Korea / Japan, including four of the top nine finishers.

Last month I spent a great weekend in Winchester, Va., where I spoke about knee injuries to physical therapy students, then later had the opportunity to watch a local girls team train indoors under the steady hand of James Wood HS coach Mark Pennypacker. After watching an hour of training, Mark asked if I wanted to join in for scrimmage. That was like offering candy to a child. Of course I was going to play. We played three games to 5, and I learned something that night that I’ve learned time and time again - I learned that pain can be quite instructive.
I stepped on the floor without any warm-up thinking that I would just take it easy and walk through the game with a trap here and a pass there. That plan didn’t last 60 seconds. Within minutes, I was bent over, sucking wind and as fatigued as I can remember being in recent history. I know what lactic acid buildup feels like, and I was beyond buildup and approaching overflowing. I was just hoping one of the girls would score so we could take a break.
Finally, a goal is scored and I practically crawled to the water fountain. I know what I did wrong. I stepped onto the field with no warm-up. I asked my body to go from rest to very high intensity activities. The pH from lactate made my legs feel very heavy and tired.
The next morning - Saturday - brings about more pain. It is called Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. I don’t run much anymore due to residual heel pain from a past injury, but I do regularly ride the stationary cycle, so my endurance is not bad. But my legs are really sore -- groan-with-every-movement sore. The front of my lower legs are sore because I haven’t recently had to move my foot into all the positions demanded of you on the soccer field. My calf muscles are sore because I haven’t sprinted in some time, and they are tired from continued use. My quads and hams are sore from running, from stopping, from kicking and from changing directions. But the most soreness is located in my adductor muscles – the groin muscles. You never know how much you use those muscles until they remind you with soreness the next day.
The reason for the pain is pretty well understood. When muscles develop force while lengthening, a great deal of force is generated and that leads to damage to some muscle cell membranes. Not much has been shown to prevent this soreness (other than regular training), although vitamins C and E seem to help speed up the repair; a welcome addition to some sports drinks.
This pain is evidence of damage and repair of this damage is one of the body’s quickest adaptations. An old coaching adage says to get rid of soreness, do what ever it was that made you sore and that is correct. Had I gone out and played Sunday instead of watching the Super Bowl, I wouldn’t feel nearly as bad on Monday as I did on Saturday.
You are probably saying that the moaning of an ex-player has little value to you as a current player or coach, but really it does. How many times have you seen teams going through a fairly passive pre-game warm-up? A little ball work, some stretching, maybe a little 5v2 and now it is time for kickoff. You wonder why the first 10-15 minutes of the game just don’t seem to be clicking, but after a while things start to look better. The same thing can happen at the start of the second half. Why? The warm-up for the first half wasn’t specific to the game – too passive, not enough higher intensity work prior to kickoff. Warm-up is supposed to bring you up to the demands of the game, not just break a sweat. And the second half? The players have just spent the last 15 minutes sitting and listening to first half review and second half plans, then are expected to step right out and play. Not good. The first 15 minutes will be tentative and less cohesive than envisioned, but the next 15 minutes are pretty good.
And the soreness? In order to be prepared to for play, all players need to have gone through lots of changes of direction. Playing 11v11 in practice just is not intense enough. Smaller sided games require more of everything so emphasis should be placed on these games. Straight ahead running trains a player to run straight ahead. Activities suggested by coaches for players should require many changes of direction and agility work, especially as training camp approaches. A player who has run distances preseason will have good endurance, but may well be so sore from soccer training at the start of camp that they have problems processing the coach’s lessons and insights. The more agility work that is done, the more prepared for the quick changes of direction required in the game.
From a training theory standpoint, this is called specificity. The more specific the training (and warm-up) is to the activity, the more the adaptations are specific to the demands of competition will be.
These lessons can and should be applied to practices, games and off-season workouts. If you don’t properly prepare yourself for the activity, you are not only hurting yourself in the immediate moment, but you’re also preparing to put yourself in uncomfortable pain the following day.
Coaches and players spend all week preparing for games, and it is important that proper preparation continues up until the whistle blows.

From the U.S. Soccer Communications Center -- February 22, 2003
CHICAGO (Feb. 22, 2003) - U.S. Soccer President Dr. S.

"After reviewing our security arrangements for the match, the JFA understands that playing the game in Seattle as planned is definitely in the best interests of soccer," said Contiguglia. "We all know that soccer is a sport about unifying the world, and the event in Seattle will certainly showcase that type of goodwill successfully."
