As a Brazilian, it's very weird to watch a detailed explanation of football rules. Feels like teaching someone how to breathe. With one exception. I specifically remember when my father taught me the offside rule using beer bottle caps, in less than a minute. I was six y.o.

[@PickupthePieces76]

A goal keeper can certainly get a red card and have to leave the pitch. Usually if a player is broken free and running towards the goal with no defenders anymore, a goal keeper might have to make a risky action resulting in a red card. If that happens the coach has to take off another player to put on the second goal keeper. There is at least one sub goal keeper on the bench if not two for when this happens or if the goal keeper gets injured. As of today a coach can make 5 substitutions in a game (with no overtime). They usually keep 1 or 2 sub opportunities available till the last 5 to 10 minutes, so it doesn't happen often, but If a coach has used up all of his substitutions and a goal keeper gets a red card a field player will be appointed a goal keeper. He puts on the gloves and is allowed to handle the ball the same as the goal keeper. This is a very rare thing to see. Before a couple of years ago, there were only three substitutions per game allowed and the chance of that happening would be slightly higher, but still would be a rare event.

[@oddpoppetesq.3467]

Quite a lot of clubs also train a few field players in goalkeeping skills just incase they do run out of sub keepers. Makes sense tbf.

[@stephenlee5929]

There was a time when there was only 1 substitute allowed, I think the substitute was the only one available. And, I believe there was a time when, substitutes were only allowed in the 1st half of the game.

[@Hieillua]

Yes. There have been matches that were ended on 90 minutes. It happens in scenarios like a very superior team completely humiliating an inferior team and them being up 5-0 for example and the dominating team just passing the ball around and there barely being any moments that the game was stopped.

I'm glad you got the offside rule so easily. It's a massive confusion for many.... 😎👍

[@Bevsworld04]

​@@oddpoppetesq.3467 Yet it's also very simple in practice... dont pass to someone who's behind the defence

[@Wickerrman]

Well there are many more complications to the rule that you would never want to explain to someone who is only just learning the game.

[@NiSiochainGanSaoirse]

It's so complex though and surprises even the most ardent of footie fans For example, for an offside to occur, there has to be 2 defending players BEHIND the ball. Usually the keeper is always one of those 2, but occasionally, when a keeper goes up for a corner, for example, there are 2 defenders instead, and there have been recent incidents where this weird and little known facet of the offside rule have caused players to kick off a bit when an expected offside wasn't given, and its usually been on this basis. The rules of football are updated every couple.of years or so, and if anyone has ever tried keeping up with them, you'll know what I'm saying when I say the rules can be so simple at times, but the rules referees have to consider to make each decision is ridiculous, and they don't get enough credit for the sheer amount of technical information they have to memorize to referee the game properly. Most fans don't know HALF of the actual rules for our beautiful game. I'm not sneering either because I gave up trying to read the full rules for the 2021 season onwards and don't know HALF of the actual rules myself. 😂

[@the_real_idoit8166]

Yea even the officials get confused by it

[@justinrabung9923]

“Soccer is easy” is what my friend who played American football always used to tell me. He was certain that he could step out on the field and dominate. I brought him out to a field to do some 1v1’s, told him to try anything he could to take the ball from me, even letting him foul me, and he couldn’t take it. Then I gave him the ball and told him to try to keep it away from me. He fumbled around with the ball and I knocked him to the ground. He never once said anything to me ever again.

[@michimike0732]

small note, since the pandemic the substitutions per game have become 5, due to the numerous games that had to be played after the stop from March to May. the 5 substitutions can be used at 3 different times, you cannot stop the game more than 3 times to make substitutions, excluding half time 2)yes, all teams have one or more reserve goalkeepers on the bench, if the goalkeeper is sent off, however, an outfield player must be replaced to bring on the reserve goalkeeper

[@bohdanonopriienko9202]

Also if your second goalkeeper receives the red card or you don't have any subs left, a field player will wear a goalie shirt and become a goalkeeper. There were situations when a field player saved a penalty in the last minutes of the game

[@SkhTrains]

Add to that, if a player is substituted due to a head injury for example concussion, that substitution doesn't count towards the 5. The opposing team also can then make an extra sub if they choose to.

[@elciquito8159]

Offside is basically this: Your teammates CAN'T pass it to you while you are behind a defender, but if they pass it to you before you get behind them then there's no offside. That is why you can see defenders normally forming a line. Without offsides football would just be chaos in my opinion.

[@vitorcatoia1560]

You need to stand behind two players, usually the goalkeeper + 1. If you get the ball behind just one defender, it's offside.

[@delayedcreator4783]

thats just way too simplified

[@daryback7103]

Easier way to understand it: if someone pass the ball to you the moment you are between the LAST defender and the goalkeeper, it's offside. The exact time is when the passers feet touch the ball for the pass.

[@daryback7103]

The only exception is when the passer is in front of you and pass backwards. In this case, there is no offside.

[@SunblockedNoran]

Or BEHIND THE LAST DEFENDER

[@Coolguy12321]

6:56 a keeper can get a red card , they usually sub a goalkeeper in for an outfield player and move the goalkeeper into his position, so you can’t be subbed, but someone already on the field can go into your position

[@arkangel2000]

5:00 point of correction. a substituted player can come back on as a substitute for another player in the same match.

[@Jaxbauer23]

They just explained the very basics of the offside rule. There are many variations of this as to if a player is/isn't deemed to be offside such as interfering with play or obstructing the view of the goalkeeper, etc. Also, a forward can pass the ball to another player who is ahead of the last defender so long as it is not passed forwards to him, and you can't be offside if you're in your own half or from a throw-in!

[@Subjagator]

I think the video explained most of those points. It probably could have been explained a bit better the difference between an offside position and an offside offence but overall the bits about you can't be offside from a goal kick or a throwin or when you aren't interfering with play are very easy to pick up once you understand the rest. My best attempt at a transcript from the video "The rule says that you're in an offside position if any of your body parts you can score with are in the opponents half of the pitch and closer to the opponents goal line than both the ball and the second last opponent in the moment the ball is played. Of course it's allowed to be offside but if you receive the ball while you're offside the opposing team gets a free kick."

[@johne4227]

You are wrong about the one with the forward being in front. He’s still offsides even if the pass is backwards

[@Subjagator]

@@johne4227 No. In order to be offside you have to be ahead of the ball.

[@johne4227]

Because unlike other reaction channels, most of which don't add anything to the video and just play the original video in its entirety and basically steal views from the creator, you pause, analyze, add a funny or insightful remark, and keep going. There's a reason to come to your channel, while still keeping the integrity of the original video. It's not as easy as it seems. Love your videos bro, cheers from Serbia.

[@TauromOG]

4:41 Yes, a match can end at exactly 90mins, but as you said, it doesn't hapens very often. Also, even if they add more time, the referee can judge and decide to end it earlier or add a bit more time even if they don't announced on the electronic board.

[@hw2508]

Offside, many people don't get it, is the basis of most tactics in football. Offside allows the defending team to control the space. And space is crucial for most tactics.

[@baylessnow]

I know it's a loooong time since I was in school but I was always lead to believe that a pitch had two goal lines and two SIDE lines, not touch lines.

[@matt_dobson0614]

Touch lines are more of a rugby thing, I think. If the ball or player holding the ball goes over the line, in rugby you say they are "in touch".

[@willnash1842]

Ive often heard side lines and touch lines basically used interchangeably. In my experience tho "side lines" is more used to refer to ppl off of the pitch, subs and managers etc are said to be "standing on the side lines". Where as "touch lines" usually refers to the actual lines on the pitch. Side lines and touch lines could both be used to refer to the actual lines on the pitch but i cant ever recall hearing "standing on the touchline"

[@baylessnow]

@@matt_dobson0614 Exactly.

[@richt71]

Yes a goalkeeper can be sent off. What usually then happens is you take another player off to be replaced by your substitute keeper. So you're still playing with one less player but you sacrifice a non keeper. If you've made all 5 substitutes already when your keeper gets a red card than an outfield player will put the keeper jersey and gloves on!

[@daloki349]

Yes, I remember the days when only one sub was allowed. It was always hilarious when an outfield player 'donned the gloves.' I miss it, really. That and dogs running on the pitch.

[@robloccnmeme969]

it can also happen when you cant play your sub goalie

[@davidthompson1383]

A couple of answers to some of your questions... The 6 second goalkeeper rule is a thing, however it's never really enforced. Quite often a goalkeeper will hold the ball for around 20 seconds and not be penalised for it. You also asked about if a game has every ended dead on 90 minutes and it does happen, but not very often. It happens a lot more often in "friendly" matches where the outcome is pretty unimportant. There was actually a game in the African version of the world cup that ended before 90 minutes, the referee had a nightmare! 😂 Also you asked if teams would be a replacement for a goalkeeper if they were to be sent off. Yes, almost every side will have a goalkeeper on the bench if their starting goalkeeper had to be taken of due to injury/red card. In most leagues you have 7 substitutes available to bring on, and you can only make 5 substitutes per game. So it's definitely worth having someone there ready if something were to happen to the one on the pitch. However if a team is out of substitutions an outfield player must go in goal instead.

[@oddpoppetesq.3467]

I was going to mention the Keeper thing. Normally if a team has subs left when a keeper is sent off another player is put in goal temporarily and then substituted for a replacement keeper. That's why quite a few clubs have multiple field players train as a goalie.

[@aaronflatt3525]

​@@oddpoppetesq.3467 They won't put a player in temporarily they will just out the sub goalie in. Outfield players only go in goal when they run out of subs usually. John O'shea, Kyle walker, rio ferdinand

I remember there was a Bundesliga match that ended early as well. Bayern Munich were winning 6-0 and the opposing fans were causing a riot and they just decided to end the match early. Edit: Just tried to look it up, not 100% sure the match actually finished earlier, but both teams stopped competing at least with like 13 mins left (they were just having a kickabout including passing deliberately to the other team)

Glad you grasped the offside rule so easily. When you actually start watching games you'll see how this comes into play, note that nowadays you can be found to be offside by the tiniest margins of even less than an inch especially if VAR(video ref) is being used in addition to referee on pitch. VAR only usually used in higher end games.

There was a recent US U17 match where the keeper got a red card. In this instance, you take out a field player and put in a backup goalie. However, the US did not have any more subs (there is a 5 sub limit in 3 windows per match) so a defender put on the gloves and keeper uniform and played keeper the rest of the match.

[@glennreading1136]

There are 100's of players to watch who are great, but I always loved watching Roberto Carlos, a really unique player to watch.

[@mr.cgaming8789]

6:50 yes there are backup goalkeepers for times where goalkeepers could get injured but if a goalkeeper gets a red card he will be removed from the game and not substituted meaning that an outfield player would have to wear a goalkeeper kit and gloves or they substitute a goalkeeper on for an outfield player.

[@achimsinn6189]

Offside is not that complicated in theory - but it can be very difficult during play. The thing is that for offside the moment when the ball is passed is considered. So the player who receives the pass and the defending players can obviously move after the ball is passed and because of that a player can easily look like he was offside when he receives the ball, but at the moment when the ball was passed he wasn't or the other way around. Plus with VAR (video assisted refferree) they are now looking at even very small margins of distance, which is why there is often still confusion about offside.

[@OldRiver109]

There is almost always a second goalkeeper on the bench, but if all substitutions were used before, or both goalies are injured (wich can hapen rarely), an outfield player takes his place (basicly there is always a goalkeeper in goal)

[@cpt.flamer7184]

Offside rule comes from rugby, or more precisely from the game that was an ancestor of football, rugby and american football. There was a rule that still exists in rugby, the remnant of it exists in football as an offside and it's completely gone in american football. In the first version of football you could not pass the ball forward only backwards, you had to gain a field by running with the ball (it's still like this in rugby) later in football they've changed it to 4 men onside, where at least 4 opponents had to be closer to the goal line than the reciver of the pass, finally it settled as 2 men onside, so the offside rule as we use today. Fun fact, in the first half of 19th century the rules were a mess, basically every club in Britain were using different rules, so often one half of the match was played by one set of rules and the other half by other set of rules. And the differences weren't minor, sometimes they played one half using hands and the other using feet xD Thankfully they've noticed it was madness so the clubs created different leagues for the game playing with hand (rugby) and feet (football).

[@SimonJM]

The term is usually 'goal-hanging' not cherry-picking. Those may be the rules, currently, but not when I was a youngster, playing. In my day they introduced the 7 step rule (I think it was) where a goal-kepper could only take up to 7 steps whilst holding the ball, and the penalty spot was 13 yards from the goal line.

[@loganleroy8622]

Cherry-picking is a slang term in basketball where you have someone wait at the other end of the court around the basket and throw it across the court to them as soon as the get the ball. That way the just reach up and put the ball into the basket, like picking cherries from a cherry tree.

[@SimonJM]

If you want content to react to, I would suggest watching last year's champions league run for Real Madrid. Nobody gave them a chance, but they beat 4 of the biggest clubs in the world at the time, which were all favorites to get to the final and win it. The semi finals against man city were insane where they were down by 2 goals by the 89th minute and manage to score 2 goals in 3 minutes to go to extra time. Insane game

[@MetalMonkey]

Offside (The short version!): There must be 2 defending players between the attacking player and the goal, 99% of the time it's 1 player and the goalkeeper. The offside rule gets confusing to us as well, just because they keep changing it slightly

[@markabourached8973]

The reason it is really rare for a match to end on the 90 minute mark is because the ref can stop it even after the given stoppage time if he feels a team is on the offensive and he can’t end the game when a goal is very possible.

[@bahamabrouk3660]

most teams have 2 backup goalkeepers on the bench, but sometimes u are out of substitutions, in that case an outfield player would change to a keeper jersey , wear gloves and go between the sticks, wich would make for a very fun end game

The goal line doesn't stretch from corner to corner. It only exists between the goalposts, hence the name, goal line. The rest of line the line between the outside posts an the corner flags is just called the line. You'll pick it up as you watch more.

[@incredibletrickshotz4385]

Teams do normally have 3 goalies on the roster and then bring two of them to the game. If a goalie gets a red normally you would sub out a outfield player to sub in the backup.

[@MaoKatz]

The goalkeeper can receive cards as any player but can get a direct red if he uses his hands out of the penalty box (the big box).

[@XzMattyxZ]

6:55, yup keepers can be sent off and if your keeper is sent off most teams (not all) keep a spare keeper on the bench and will sub an outfield player (usually a more forward player like a striker) for the replacement keeper, however if you've used all available subs or do not have a spare keeper (or as has happened on rare occasions your main keeper is injured or sent off and the backup keeper is then also injured or sent off) an outfield player then becomes the keeper for the rest of the game, swapping shirts with the keeper or wearing a spare keeper shirt (personally remember Dexter Blackstock in an FA cup game, John o'shea did it a couple times for Man United)

[@telephoneradio]

7:30 ironically that goal should have been awarded since Dos Santos wasn't offside, he actually scored a second goal that same match that was also called back for offside and that too should have been awarded, I know, I'm Mexican and that world cup we got robbed :(

[@joanstacco12]

That is the basic of offside but its more complex whit more exceptions, for example you can make a pass to an offside player if the pass is backward and not to the front.

[@grenvallion]

It should be noted that if a player is sent off due to a red card. That means the team is reduced to 10 for the remainder of the game. So 9 outfield players vs. the opponents 10. If the keeper is sent off. The same applies. However, this means that the manager will have to take off one of the outfield players to replace the keeper with another keeper from the bench. 3 red cards from 1 team means they automatically lose the game. If the keeper has to be replaced, it also uses up 1 of the available subs

[@loganleroy8622]

so what happens if your goalie gets a red in the 85' after you've used all of your subs?

[@grenvallion]

@Logan Leroy the manager, will have to put an outfield player in goal for the remainder of the game

[@kennyo0079]

It’s 5 red cards to forfeit

[@iSolomander]

Backup keepers exist. You’d usually put one of the other 10 in goal and then sub them out

[@rolandbrouwer]

4:50 al lot of matches stop without stopage time... mostly because it's 5-0 and everybody wants to go home lol

[@PedroMartins-gp2ei]

The offside rule is what makes football the game it is. It forces the teams to play in a 30-40 meters long area. Without it, yes you could leave a striker near the opponents box, but then 1 or 2 defenders would allways stay with him, with no possibility to go up in the field. That means without the offside rule, players would spread evenly through the entire field, dynamics and tactics would be so different than they are, that it would be a totaly different game.

[@thesunnynationg]

if its the touch line or the goal line. we dont use these words, its just the "out line" and the goal line is just the line between the goal posts that determines if the ball is in or not.

[@bryanromans2331]

When goalkeeper is sent off an outfield player takes his place or the manager subsitues another player and brings on another keeper

[@8asw8]

4:44 happens regularly, for instance when one team is taking a beating. Say its 7-0 and the last 10 minutes were just ball shuffling anyway, one team wanting it to be over and the other feeling bad for them or conserving energy, than usually the Ref just calls it a day at 90 minutes sharp. Or in a friendly game in pre season which are basically just test games for the clubs to explore tactics, team chemistry etc but otherwise are in a pretty intense workout schedule. So to not overtax the players, the Ref usually doesnt give much additional time or none at all. Additional time is always in the judgement of the ref. He gets a suggestion from the 4th Ref but he is not bound to it.

[@RockinFootball_23]

I do not remember the match anymore but I did once watch one where it ended at exactly 90 min. The final whistle blew and I was kinda shocked that they didn’t add stoppage time.

Yes, in former times there were quite a few matches that have been ended at pretty much exactly 90 minutes. There have also been instances when the ref ended the match too soon - in at least one of the instances the referee ended the half aftzer 32 mins (instead of 45 mins) and seemed to have had a few too many beers and booze (this happened in the Bundesliga in Germany on 8th November 1975). ^^

[@haririmedkhalil4762]

There's always injury time unless there's a massive gap on the score board, some refree will stop the game a few seconds after the 90 mins

[@mlee6050]

There is always a sub goal keeper as some times the goalie gets injured or concussion and so has to be sent off, I think one team had both sent off

[@alexl2914]

Some games finish on 90mins exactly - happens often when a game is already over because of the scoreline. For example if a team is winning 4-0 sometime the ref just won't add time on cos its pointless. (The frequency of this various from country to country) AND Teams will have a substitute goalkeeper on the bench, if the one playing gets sent off, the team will substitute a outfield player and bring on the new goalkeeper. Rarely a outfield player will have to go in goal - for example if a the team has already used their 3 substitution stopages

[@itsconsul3346]

4:53 It only happens when referee consider that game is over because an advantage of 4 goals o further.

[@pippofranco879]

Used to be that most games where one side was winning by a large margin (say, by 3 or more goals) would not have any stoppage time and would end on the 90th minute. That doesn't happen anymore, even Liverpool-Man United which was 7-0 on the 90th minute got 4 minutes of injury time.

[@maddockjones9753]

the six seconds rule is mostly to keep the goalies from wasting time and things of that nature so that rule is just a suggestion and depends on the circumstances of the game and also its mostly ref discretion as to if he should card him for it

7:00 yes GKs get red cards too. There is always a backup GK on the bench to replace him. If the GK gets a red card, though, he can't technically be replaced, but there is a way around this... an outfield player must be sacrificed and substituted by the new GK. This also sucks because now you will have to continue the match with one less outfield player, as the GK will of course go back to his position as GK, leaving the subbed outfield player's position empty.

[@Snick989]

in games where one team is winning by like 7 goals or something crazy, the ref will end the game sharp without adding on injury time, sometimes ive seen the whistle blown prior to 90 mins, like at 89:57 or something. It is like a mercy ruling by the ref.

[@calderon1492]

4:40 yes the match can end exactly on 90'. Typically doesn't happen if the match is close.

[@nicklikethesoup]

The 6 second goalkeeper rule is very flexible. There have been keepers who will hold it for up to 20+ seconds before a ref will card them.

[@AnyMEmdq]

6:50 If the GK gets a red card, you can substitute another player for a substitute GK. You still have only 10 players instead of 11, but you get to keep someone who knows how to stop the ball. If you are out of substitutions (3 per match as per rule, but since covid there a bit more lenient system in place, where you can make substitutions up to 3 times, but you can substitute up to 5 players), you can send a field player as GK (giving them the GK shirt and gloves). You can get an extra substitution if you already expended all your substitutions and your GK gets injured and cannot continue to play

[@ja1212az]

Offside That have sense Good work man

[@LoShiFabi]

tipically in a football team there are between 21 and 25 people(depending on league), 11 in the starting formation and others on bench, and the team must have 3 goalkeepers in total. So if the first goalkeeper gets a red card, you can substitute a player like a defender or a midfielder with your second goalkeeper, but you'll still play 10 vs 11 because one player stays out

[@rockonileva]

About games normally ending at 90:00 - Normally the added time happen both on first and second halves. If the score is like 6x0, there's no point of giving extra time. So the referee just finishes the match and there's no complains about it. About offsides: There are 2 exceptions for this rule. - If you are on your own side of the field on the moment of the pass, you're safe. - If there are 2 players of one team , both behind the last defender, and one has the ball. The other player is not on offside if he's behind the ball line.

[@CharlieyT95]

It's rare but yes matches have ended at actually 90 minutes. Usually after a particularly clean game

[@diogofranco9755]

the substitution information is out of date, since COVID-19, the coach can stop the game 3 times to change 5 players in total. For example, you can change 2 players 2 times, and save the 5th in case someone gets injured.

[@lloyd1053]

If the goalkeeper gets sent off, the bring there back up goalie on and take an outfield player off. This isn’t a rule, but you want a keeper on or you would get battered

[@Beanee27]

Offside: if the player receiving the ball is between the opposing goalkeeper and their closest defending team mate when the ball is played (IE leaves the passing players foot), they are offside. If the ball deflects or is played by the opposition into your player in an offside position, they are not offside (obviously there are more rules, but st the basic level). A goalkeeper can receive a red, and if so, can be replaced if needed by replacing an outfield player and moving them into goal. If you have no back up keepers after a keeper recieves a red card, an outfield player (defender for example) can step into goal in their place, even though it isn't their position.

[@allomax1311]

in response to the question about 90 minutes, yes it does happen but its much more common for games to last like 91 or 92 minutes. goalkeepers can and do get red cards and every team will alsways have a substitute goalkeeper. sometimes, for example, if your goalkeeper gets injured and your substitute goalkeeper gets red card, one of the remaining 10 outfield players will have to be the goalkeeper till the end of the game.

[@gamingmaniactv5050]

Actually during attacks, you can be behind the last defender without getting the ball but you have to time it perfectly so you won't be offside.

[@raarzwijngroenteburger2449]

at 2:50 yes a goalie can only have the ball for 6 sec, well most have it longer and the ref might give a yellow card after they did it too long or to many times.

[@austinedeclan10]

I've watched many football matches, I've yet to see one that ended exactly at the 90 minute mark. There has always been added time. 1 minute being the least 10 minutes (at the recent world cup) being the most I've seen. There was drama at last year's Africa Cup of Nations when a referee ended a match after 86 minutes to the utter bewilderment of both teams.

[@907Heathen]

I have seen a 9min stoppage time... that was insane

[@rocketrabble6737]

Offside in football prevents it becoming an entirely different and probably very repetitive game tactically. Many games have a rule like that for the same sort of reasons. For instance in cricket there is a law (rule) called leg before wicket (lbw) which prevents the batter from standing in front of the wicket to stop the ball hitting it; without that law it would substantially change the game.

[@StofStuiver]

Actually ALL matches were stopped at 90 minutes, untill they started adding 'stoppage time', which was end 80ies, or early 90ies i think. If i remember well. And even now, a lot of games are still stopped at 90minutes. Also the added time doesnt reflect the real time the game was interrupted. Its a bit 'how we feel' it seems. The entire stoppage time thing was added, because before that, teams that were satisfied with the score just didnt play at all anymore. They got the ball and then only passed it around in the back a bit. It was utterly boring. Thats also why the rule that a goalkeeper is not allowed to hold the ball longer than 6 seconds was added and the rule that once the keeper has had it in his hands and lets it go, is not allowed to pick it back up. And another rule that was added for that reason is that a goalkeeper is not allowed to pick up the ball when a friendly player deliberately passes the ball to him. Back in the day it was awfull, when said team was satisfied with the score. They would endlessly pass the ball in the back, to the goalkeeper again, who picked it up, then held it for 30 seconds or so, then threw it to a defender, who passed it back, where the goalkeeper picked it up again, and so on. That wasnt football anymore, but trying to get the clock to 90 minutes. All these rules were added to stop that and it worked. Off side btw is when an attacker passes the ball to another attacker that is passed the last person of the opposing team, not counting the goalkeeper. That rule has been in game for as long as i can remember (im 62). If you would have this rule, it would mean that some attacker could keep standing near the opponents goal. And because you wouldnt want him standing there, possibly getting a long pass, youd have to put at least one defender there. That would mean the entire field would be in use all the time. Tbh i kinda like it, bc it creates more room, which means less contact. Im guessing they dont want it, for the camera's. Theyd have to be filming the entire field all the time. If that rule wouldnt exist, it would surely change the entire game. Maybe also make it a bit more boring. Bc those players, from both side, would be standing there more or less static, untill that pass comes. And as you know its a pretty big field to begin with. I played all sorts, from standard fields, to also a lot, indoors, which is usually basketball size, or volley, while officially, indoors is in between those two. You have a lot more 'room' on a real pitch, than most indoor fields. Means higher speeds, longer passes, more room for passing moves, etc.

[@StofStuiver]

There was a trick btw for circumventing off sides. Dunno if its still allowed but; If a player is outside the lines (all lines, so not on the pitch), so lets say he fell and ended up behind the opposing teams backline, or maybe was injured and got some treatment while laying there. Then if the game continues, that player was allowed to move back into the field. I think now the referee has to give the ok for that, with some handsign that hes allowed to get back on the pitch, but not sure if that now applies to all situations. So suppose an attacking player with the ball sees that guy is standing up and wanting to come back in. He can then pass the ball towards that player, whois not off side, bc hes outside the pitch. But as he sees that ball coming, sprints back onto the pitch, takes the ball and scores.

[@LazyMeta.]

From what I know a football roster consists of 23 players the starting 11 and 12 others for subs or reserves

[@demumood]

Also before a maych you get your 11 on pirch as the starters , then subs a pool of a few players which you can sub wirh during rhe game and reswrves which you cannot ..like on basketball. Thr reaeve come into play in the event of an injury or a red card or a suspended player. Then you can pull from that to play the next couple of games

[@georgesamuels3402]

Fair play dude... you get it

[@konfuchie357]

As someone who watched European football as young as I can remember it is adorable to see someone grasping the basic concepts. But I gotta say, you learn quickly! I took some time watching American football and with help of some sports commentators in my language that are aware they have to explain the rules now and than I learned to enjoy it quite quickly, very fun sport, but soccer is still an artform.

[@t.a.k.palfrey3882]

Stoppage time is added only of the game is "substantially" interrupted. So a clean substitution, a throw in, or a brief halt of play is generally overlooked - particularly in lower semi-professional, fully amateur, or school/college games. There are no stats for this, but I would think that, of the hundreds of thousands of games played each week, worldwide and which attract some number of non-playing audience, fewer than five percent have significant stoppage time added on. The more professional the match with more expensive players, the more likely a professional, full-time referee will be to play stoppage time. An inter-schools or under 16s match infrequently attracts stoppage time.

[@barrypegg3070]

Any one can get a yellow or red card including players not on the pitch and the coaching staff. You can also get cards after the game has finished, There have been cases where players or coaches have continued protesting to match official about something that happened during the game after the final whistle and get booked or sent off. Goalkeeper regularly get sent off. Normally the team effected will take of an outfield player and bring on a replacement goalkeeper. However, in the past when goalkeepers got sent off an out-field player would have to go in goal.

[@RicoRojas]

if you understand hockey & cherry pick'n then you get get offsides. the main difference is that instead of the blue line for offsides, the "blue line" moves with the last player on the defense (plus the keeper or 2nd defender if the keeper is further forward)

[@craimaxblack]

Some matches doesn't add extra time and end at 90 because the score is way too high and the referee just end the macht, like, if the match is going 6-0 then the referee just end it because it is pointless to continue the game, mostly on league matches, on international matches they add just to follow the rules

[@ianpodmore9666]

I was in a game once where our goalie was sent off. Due to some issue I can't remember what, we had no subs and as I had strained a muscle so I went in goal. It was a disaster, we lost 7-0, I was incredible though, could easily have been double figures. 😁😁

[@jovanmatic7109]

There is a backup goalkeeper, but if your gk gets a red, you need to substitute one outfield player in oreder to get your backup gk on pitch

[@jarnovangelder8456]

6:40 in a lot of competitions too many yellow cards in a season is suspension for 1 match.

[@TrondArneAusdal]

Probably answered before, but still .... : Back in the day, when stoppage time wasn't included, all matches ended after exactly 90 minutes. The rule was changed after many teams abused the situation and faked injuries or took extremely long time if they had the result they wanted. I remember one match, I believe in World Cup 1990 (IM not sure tho), where the match ended after a bit over 80 minutes. One team had a massive lead. (In the last World Cup we saw stoppage time in the 10-15 minute range, an effort by FIFA to set a new precedence to punish extreme intentional delaying of time - which sadly hasnt seemed to last). Playing back to the keeper was allowed until World Cup 1990, when teams, after having a lead, would use insane amounts of time passing the ball to the keeper, who then held it for a minute, based back to a defender, and repeated until the match was over. About goalkeepers. I remember a match in the top division in UK (before premier league) ... The goalkeeper was sent of and and regular player hade to guard the goal. He ended up saving a penalty!

[@pokkrongundamrongkarn]

There are many interesting things I remember once there was news about a match that ended at 80-something minutes and the referees of that match got ban or something lol

[@antibosteriodismo5184]

Believe me , the off side rule make sense in football

[@engineersin]

7:00 A goalkeeper (GK) can be of course sent off, directly red carded or receiving a second yellow card, converts to a red card... In that case, one of the non-goalkeeper players act as if he is red carded . It can be anyone in the team but that "acting red carded" player has to be playing actively at the exact moment in the game the red card was shown (so lets say u cant make a susbstitute sitting in the bench "act" like having the red card, otherwise it would not be fair for the other team isnt it ;) ) That "acting" player can be choosen voluntarily OR by the coach, completely up to the red card receiving team. Than that non-GK player leaves the pitch along with the GK since both cannot play anymore in the game due to "actually being" and "acting" red carded, but since the game cant be player without GKs, a substitute GK replaces the red carded GK, and %99.99 the benches have at least one substitute GK for these kind of instances. So in the end, your team is 1 player less for the rest of that game, plus your not-the-best GK in the bench who was not able to compete and success with the starting GK, will now have to do the GK role... So its a double lose in my point Thats the practical explanation. But technically its like this-> The GK fouls harsh / does a banned movement, thus red carded. The game is instantly stoped before the red card is shown. Then since the game rules dictate you must have a GK to keep on playing, at that instant, theoretically someone in the field playing (again can be anyone, defender, midfielder etc.) "becomes" the GK. But of course noone is silly enough to place a non-GK player as a GK because NONE of the other players are even trained ONCE how to play as a GK, rather than wasting time and energy on that, they get specialised training on their specialsied role. In that case, still the game being stooped, that "acting" red carded person is substituted with a GK in the bench. (unless red carded team has to, due to not having any other GK in the bench OR if tthe team is out of subs, in that case someone in the field has to be the GK :) )
