A goal kick is a method of
restarting play.
A goal may be scored directly from a goal kick, but only against the
opposing team.
A goal kick is awarded when:
- the whole of the ball, having last touched a player of the
attacking team, passes over the goal line, either on the ground
or in the air, and a goal is not scored in accordance with Law 10 .
