What Is The Definition Of Free Kick In Soccer?
1. A team is awarded a free kick in soccer when a foul is committed by the offending team outside the penalty area. There are two types of free kicks. A direct free kick is a shot directed straight towards the goal and does not need to be touched by a second player in order to be counted as a goal, if it goes in the net. An indirect free kick has to at least touch another player before it goes into the goal to count.
