3.Corners and Penalties: When the ball leaves the sideline and is touched by the last player of the opponent, the referee will award a corner. When a player commits a foul or violates the rules, the referee will award a penalty or indirect free kick to the opposing team.
4.Offside: A player is considered offside when he is in the middle of two lines of defence when he receives a pass from his teammate and there is no defender. If a player touches the ball in an offside position, the referee will award an indirect free kick to the opponent.
5.Fouls and red and yellow cards: The referee will award a foul when a player attacks an opponent with an elbow, kick, pick-and-roll, etc., or touches other than the ball. If the foul is serious or the player refuses to obey the referee's instructions, he may be sent off. A player with more than two yellow cards will be sent off, while a red card will result in an immediate drop-off.
