The ref should award a corner. For a ball to be deemed in play from an indirect free kick (for offside) it has to be touched by another player. Because the goalkeeper in this instance did NOT touch the ball and it it rolled over the goal line that is deemed the back line, so a corner is awarded.Quote:

A corner would be too lenient so a direct free kick is awarded and retaken enough times until the more established club scores a winner.
The match must then be ended regardless of how many minutes have been played
Hope that clears up EFL rule 58b (Roth). Affectionately known in refereeing circles as Howard,s Way

Well it is according to the ref at West Brom
After such an awful mistake, he needs demoting to the national league and sent for retraining.
I’d recommend a sideways move perhaps into administration.Quote:
