Advice To Referees on the Laws of the Game –
Replacement of Corner Flags
• 1.6 NO PLAYER MODIFICATIONS TO THE
FIELD
…Players may return bent or leaning corner flags
to the upright position, but they may not bend or
lean them away from the upright position to take
a corner kick, nor may the corner flag be
removed for any reason. (However, a corner flag
which cannot be repositioned upright in a stable
manner and which would interfere with the
normal taking of a corner kick, may be
temporarily held upright until the corner kick is
completed.)

Law 14 – The Penalty Kick
Interpretation of the Laws of the Game and Guidelines for Referees
Procedure
Present Text
Feinting to take a penalty kick to confuse opponents is
permitted as part of football. However, if, in the opinion of the
referee, the feinting is considered an act of unsporting
behavior, the player must be cautioned.
New Text
Feinting in the run-up to take a penalty kick to confuse
opponents is permitted as part of football. However, feinting
to kick the ball once the player has completed his run-up is
considered an infringement of Law 14 and an act of
unsporting behavior for which the player must be cautioned.

Law 14 – The Penalty Kick
Interpretation of the Laws of the Game and Guidelines for Referees
USSF Advice to Referees:
• Kicker may feint during the run to the ball (but no delay or
excessive direction changes)
• Between the completion of the run to the ball and the actual kick, a
feint is a violation of Law 14
• Example: clearly stopping and waiting for a reaction from the
goalkeeper before kicking
• Treat the same as other violations of Law 14
• Allow the kick to proceed
• If ball in the net, cancel goal and order a retake
• If ball not in net, indirect free kick for opposing team where
violation occurred
• In either case, caution the kicker for unsporting behavior before
restarting play

21
The Fourth Official
Interpretation of the Laws of the Game and Guidelines for Referees
The fourth official and the reserve assistant referee (bullet point 7)
Present Text:
He [4th official] must indicate to the referee when the wrong
player is cautioned because of mistaken identity or when a
player is not sent off having been seen to be given a second
caution or when violent conduct occurs out of the view of the
referee and assistant referees. The referee, however, retains
the authority to decide on all points connected with play.
New Text:
He assists the referee to control the match in accordance
with the Laws of the Game. The referee, however, retains the
authority to decide on all points connected with play.
Feb, 2011
GLASA PreSeason Spring 2011 All Referee Mtg
22
The Fourth Official
Interpretation of the Laws of the Game and Guidelines for Referees
The fourth official and the reserve assistant referee (bullet point 7)
USSF Advice to Referees: The removal of the listed duties
for the fourth official does not mean that they no longer are
fourth official responsibilities. As the Board explained, the
change was for the purpose of broadening the areas of
fourth official assistance to include anything which may
pertain to assisting the referee to control the match. The
change emphasizes the importance of including in the
pregame conference a discussion of the areas in which the
referee wishes the fourth official to provide specific
assistance.
