    I guess this can be answered for sure in the ref's forum later but a similar case came up recently and despite what the announcers said, it shouldn't have been a goal and the ref made the right decision..
    There is a FIFA Law of the Game that states the ball is not in play until after it leaves the keepers foot.. In other words even if he had been dropping the ball and the player took it from him while it was in the air, he couldn't take it until after it left the goalkeeper's foot.. In this case it was well before it left his foot.. (or hand on a throw)..;)

    That would make sense, because otherwise everytime the goalie is going to kick the ball people would jump on him to get the ball.

    It shouldn't have been a goal, because El Bofo should have got 5 yellow cards for diving before that play.

    Like I said, we had this discussion before and it ended up that you can't take the ball from the keeper when he has it in his control in his box until he kicks it or throws it or places it down for a kick while it's still in play (ie: Oswaldo vs Korea) .. Ask in the ref's forum.. If they allowed it before, perhaps they made a mistake.. I saw the FIFA rule also but it was a few months ago and I can't remember the exact wording but unless I'm missing something, no way it was a ligit goal..

    In the case we talked about before, the goalkeeper was in the act of dropping the ball to his foot to punt the ball upfield from inside his box and a player kicked the ball away from him before it hit his foot.. It was not allowed.. In that case most thought it was called a foul for a dangerous play but in looking for an answer it also became apparent that it was illegal for another FIFA rule... The one I stated.. Or tried to state..;)

    Good stuff...:D

    There is one almost identical to the one we are talking about.. Where the player heads the ball out of the goalkeeper's hands...
    Doesn't mean it counted, or should have, however..
    It's a good reference for the refs' here to look at though..;)

    Perhaps there is a "loophole" in the law that allows the ball to be taken from the goalkeeper's possession but only if done by the head... The ref tonight didn't see it that way, though..
    I'm really curious what the true answer is..:confused:

    I have seen the same exact play occur several times and the goal counted. Does not suprise me that the ref didnt count the goal...its ok when we get our full squad back we'll win in Velez...if you think we cant just remember what happened to Sao Paolo.

    That goal wasent legit, you cant take the ball away from the goalie when he already has it in his hands

    If that goal was legit then so was Bahrain's goal vs T&T in the WCQ

    A long time ago it was okay.. Seems it must have been a very long time ago from things I read..
    I did a lot of looking around the net.. I did everything except read all the Laws of the Game at FIFA...;)

    Anyway, at all the "questions and answers" for referees and ref' message boards and all articles, it states it is not legal and that you can't try to dislodge the ball from the goalkeeper's possession..

    Here's one answer at a ref's site and there are many more like it on the net and none say it's okay to do what was done last night:

    In a perfect world, I would have loved to have seen Bofo try that play with Chilavert as the goalie. There would be no more Bofo. :D

    not really..

    "FIFA released a Q&A stating that the ball could be headed off the open hand of the keeper and also (in a different answer) that the ball could be kicked away from a punt before before it was completed. This was to be allowed if the referee considered the actions safe. BOTH POSITIONS WERE REVERSED.

    That is why the older and latest FIFA Q&A say it is illegal and why there was some confusion."
