Question: 1 / 400

In which situation can a player take a direct free kick?

For an offside offense

For a dangerous play foul

For any handball violation

For an obstruction foul

A player can take a direct free kick for a dangerous play foul because such fouls typically involve actions that can potentially cause injury to another player, like high kicking or attempting to play the ball while an opponent is in a vulnerable position. A direct free kick is awarded in situations where a player commits certain fouls or infringes on the regulations in a way that warrants a direct opportunity for the opposing team to kick the ball towards the goal without an intervening touch from another player.

This option is correct because dangerous play disrupts the game and poses risks to player safety, thus justifying the awarding of a direct free kick as a form of punishment for the offending team, allowing the other team to attempt to score.
