Question Number: 23776Law 10 - Method of Scoring 8/15/2010RE: County Combination Adult daniel bruns of warrington, Cheshire England asks...Can a team score direct from a restart? Without the need to pass to team member? Answer provided by Referee Joe McHugh Hi Daniel
A team can score on its opponents directly from any kicked restart with the exception of an indirect free kick. So if it's a direct free kick, goal kick, kick off or corner kick a goal can be scored directly without the need to pass to a team mate.
A goal cannot be scored directly from a throw in restart.
A team cannot score an own goal directly against itself from any restart.

Indirect free kick - no direct score is possible unless the ball touches any other player on the way into the net.
Direct free kick - can score directly on the other team
Throw-in - cannot score directly (see IDFK)
Corner kick - can score directly
Dropped ball - can score directly assuming ball was in play (hit the ground first)
Kick-off - can score directly on the other team
