Play is restarted with a dropped ball for Team A. After the ball touches the ground, a player of Team A notices that the opposing goalkeeper is far from the goal line and kicks the ball towards Team B’s goal. The goalkeeper tries to catch the ball, but it slips out of their hands and goes into the goal. What is the correct decision?

Question

Accepted Answer

The goal is awarded because the dropped ball has touched two players before entering the goal (the player for whom the ball was dropped and the opposing goalkeeper).
