goalie cannot pick it up if teammate passes with legs. he can pick it up if teammate passes with body or head. 🙂

hrm, i'm gonna check it out. maybe FIFA amended the rules. i have no idea. i haven't played a real ball since high school freshman year and now i'm going to be senior in college.

Are the games going to be on HD? I thought I heard or read somewhere that they were.

 

[Juno]

ESPN is on HD.

When it comes to the feet it's basically ref's ruling on it... if you intentionally pass it with your feet to the goalie and he picks it up, it's a hand ball. If you unintentionally pass it with your foot to the goalie then you're safe... I use to play goalie... if you were unsure if it was intentional or not, it was best not to pick it up.

that still sounds unfair. what if the teammate pretends he passes the ball unintentionally?

well... that's why it's up to the ref's discression... btw... how does one pretend to pass the ball unintentionally... if you notice while watching the World cup, when the ball is passed to the Goalie it is usually difinative wether it was intentional or not.
