January LOTG Points of Emphasis - Fouls and Challenges Law 13
------
An attacker runs with the ball towards the opponents’ goal.
A defender first pushes the attacker (outside the penalty area) and then
deliberately trips the opponent (this second contact is inside the penalty area).
What is the correct decision?
The Referee applies advantage for push and awards a penalty kick for the tripping offense which occured inside the penalty area.
If the tripping offense stopped a promissing attack or denied the attacker an obvious goal scoring opportunity, the defender would receive the appropriate disciplinary sanction.
