ATR: 5.6 ADVANTAGE
....
The advantage applies only to infringements of Law 12 (fouls and/or misconduct) and not to infringements of other Laws. For example, there can be no advantage during an offside situation, nor may advantage be applied in the case of an illegal throw-in that goes to an opponent.
....
LOTG: Law 3 (Interpretation):
....
If a team has fewer than seven players because one or more players has deliberately left the field of play, the referee is not obliged to stop the match and the advantage may be played. In such cases, the referee must not allow the match to resume after the ball has gone out of play if a team does not have the minimum number of seven players.
....
If a team official enters the field of play:
• the referee must stop play (although not immediately if the team official does not interfere with play or if the advantage can be applied)
....
If a substitute or a substituted player enters the field of play without permission:
• the referee must stop play (although not immediately if the player in question does not interfere with play or if the advantage can be applied)
LOTG: Law 5 (Interpretation): Advantage
The referee may play advantage whenever an infringement or offence occurs. (Newly added to 2008 Laws)
....
CONFLICT: Advantage is apparently not limited to Law 12. Law 3 Interpretation includes cases where no “foul” is committed. A team official cannot be sanctioned under Law 12.
