In this powerpoint we are going to talk about the foul committed by touching the ball with the hands. In addition , we will explain what the laws of the game say about it and what the referee should do.

1. HANDBALL IN A
FOOTBALL MATCH

2. INTRODUCTION
Today we will try to help readers on a topic that
generates more problems , the fouls by touching the ball
with the hands and when the referee should take yellow
card to the player that commit this foul . First , we are
going to see what gets in the rules about what a referee
must take into account when blowing the whistle for a
foul for touching the ball with the hands .

3. LAWS OF THE GAME
 The referee must take into account the movement of the
hand towards the ball .
 The distance between the opposing player and hand.
 The position of the hand does not mean it is foul .

4. LAWS OF THE GAME
 Also will be hand , when the player touching the ball
with any object held in the hand.
 It will be equally hand, if you touch the ball with any
object that has been thrown by the hand.

5. YOU SHOULD KNOW...
Secondly, we want to clarify that fouls by hand , are
direct and not indirect fouls, as many people mistakenly
think. Touch the ball with the hand is one of 10 fouls
that are written within the normal direct faults . So, in
this case the player can score a goal directly from a free
kick by touching the ball with the hand and will be a
penalty if a player touches the ball with his hand inside
the area .

6. WHEN A REFEREE MUST SHOW A
CARD TO A PLAYER WHO TOUCHES
THE BALL WITH HIS HAND ?
The referee must show card to the player who touches
the ball with his hand to cut a clear pass between
peers. It will not be card, if the pass goes to a group of
people without being directed to a specific person .

7. WHEN A REFEREE MUST SHOW A
CARD TO A PLAYER WHO TOUCHES
THE BALL WITH HIS HAND ?
The referee should also admonish the player by
touching the ball with his hand and when he tries to
convince the referee that has touched the ball with
another part of the body, for example, trying to score a
goal with the hand and pretending to persuade that has
done it with the head

8. CONCLUSSION
As we can see, this rule leaves much to
interpretation of the referee, and we must understand
that he has neither much time nor many repetitions , like
us on television , the referee has to judge and decide in
milliseconds and with viewing conditions sometimes
quite bad .
Remember, a referee is a worker who is doing his job,
does anyone like to do a bad job willfully?.
