Play is restarted with a dropped ball for Team A. After the ball touches the ground, a Team A player touches it several times with their feet and then kicks the ball directly into the opponents’ goal. What is the correct decision if the ball has not touched any other player after it was dropped?

Question

Accepted Answer

The player receiving the dropped ball can dribble or continue playing the ball, with no limit to the number of touches. However, the player cannot score in the opponents’ goal if the ball does not touch at least one other player (from either team). In this case, play is restarted with a goal kick to Team B.
