One of the main responsibilities of the assistant is calling offside.
A throw-in must be thrown in a fluid motion over the players head and is in play when the ball leaves the player's hands. A corner kick is taken from anywhere in the corner arc by any attacking player and is considered to be in play when it is kicked and moves.Ī throw-in is awarded when the ball travels over the touch (or side) lines to the opposing team of the team that touched it last. A goal kick is taken from anywhere in the goal area by any defending player (including, obviously, the keeper) and is considered to be in play when it leaves the penalty area.Ī corner kick is awarded when the ball travels over the goal line after last being touched by a defender. The referee's signal always takes priority over the assistants.Ī good assistant referee will always stay in line with the second to last defender or the ball, whichever is closer to the goal line, so as to make judging offside easier.Ī quick explanation of the restarts that can be signalled for:Ī goal kick is awarded when the ball travels over the goal line after last being touched by an attacker. In particular, if he wishes to indicate that a player deserves a yellow or red card, he will place his hand over his chest badge. The assistant may show this signal if, for example, a player begins abusing him or he sees outside interference. When the assistant simply keeps the flag straight up after the whistle is blown, he is indicating he needs to talk to the referee. Other possible signals for penalty kicks include holding the flag horizontally across the chest or running to the corner flag and hiding their flag behind their back. The referee can then determine the appropriate restart.
If the AR stays where they are then it indicates the foul was outside the penalty area. Generally, if a foul is called by the referee and it is inside the penalty area the AR will move toward the corner flag. If they want to dispute the goal, however, they will put the flag up and stay where they are. When the assistant thinks a goal has been scored, they will lower the flag, optionally may point to center with their hand and sprint back to the center line.
