funkymunky Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Can someone clear something up for me please. Now as far as I’m concerned if a goalkeeper handles the ball outside the box that’s an instant Red Card. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the case only if by doing so he is denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity as far as I know. If he goes up for a corner and handballs the ball into the opposition net, he would only get a yellow card, same as an outfield player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snorks Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Yep @Mons has it pretty well spot on. Outside the Penalty Area the GK is treated as any other outfield player would be. So if it is a yellow card offence only a yellow card. Denying an Obvious Goalscoring Opportunity would be the Red. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
