Away goals, extra time
and taking kicks from the penalty mark are
methods of determining the winning team where competition rules
require there to be a winning team after a match has been drawn.
Away Goals
Competition rules may provide that where teams play each other
home and away, if the scores are equal after the second match, any
goals scored at the ground of the opposing team will count double.
Extra Time
Competition rules may provide for two further equal periods, not
exceeding 15 minutes each, to be played. The conditions of Law 8
will apply.
Kicks from the penalty mark
Procedure
• The referee chooses the goal at which the kicks will be taken
• The referee tosses a coin and the team whose captain wins the
toss decides whether to take the fi rst or the second kick
• The referee keeps a record of the kicks being taken
• Subject to the conditions explained below, both teams take fi ve
kicks
• The kicks are taken alternately by the teams
• If, before both teams have taken fi ve kicks, one has scored more
goals than the other could score, even if it were to complete its
five kicks, no more kicks are taken
• If, after both teams have taken fi ve kicks, both have scored the
same number of goals, or have not scored any goals, kicks continue
to be taken in the same order until one team has scored a
goal more than the other from the same number of kicks
• A goalkeeper who is injured while kicks are being taken from the
penalty mark and is unable to continue as goalkeeper may be
replaced by a named substitute provided his team has not used the
maximum number of substitutes permitted under the competition
rules
* With the exception of
the foregoing case, only players who are
on the field of play at the end of the match, which includes extra
time where appropriate, are allowed to take kicks from the penalty
mark
• Each kick is taken by a different player and all eligible players
must
take a kick before any player can take a second kick
• An eligible player may change places with the goalkeeper at any
time when kicks from the penalty mark are being taken
• Only the eligible players and match officials are permitted to
remain on the field of play when kicks from the penalty mark are
being taken
• All players, except the player taking the kick and the two
goalkeepers,
must remain within the centre circle
• The goalkeeper who is the team-mate of the kicker must remain
on the field of play, outside the penalty area in which the kicks
are being taken, on the goal line where it meets the penalty area
boundary line
• Unless otherwise stated, the relevant Laws of the Game and
International
F.A. Board
Decisions apply when kicks from the penalty mark are being
taken
*When a team finishes the match with a greater number of
players
than their opponents, they shall reduce their numbers to equate
with that of their opponents and inform the referee of the name
and number of each player excluded. The team captain has this
responsibility.
• Before the start of kicks from the penalty mark the referee shall
ensure that only an equal number of players from each team
remain within the centre circle and they shall take the kicks.
