Away goals, extra time and kicks from the penalty mark are the three
methods
approved for 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 aggregate
score is 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
first or the second kick
- The referee keeps a record of the kicks being taken
- Subject to the conditions explained below, both teams take five kicks
- The kicks are taken alternately by the teams
- If, before both teams have taken five 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 five 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 eligible 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
- If at the end of the match and before the kicks start to be taken from
the penalty mark, one
team has a greater number of players than its opponents, it must reduce
its numbers to equate with
that of its opponents and the team captain must inform the referee of
the name and number of each
player excluded. Any player thus excluded may not participate in kicks
from the penalty mark.
- Before the start of kicks from the penalty mark, the referee must
ensure that an equal number of
players from each team remains within the centre circle and they shall
take the kicks
- The kicks from the penalty mark are not part of the match
- The penalty area where the kicks from the penalty marks are taking
place may be changed only if
the goal or the playing surface becomes unusable
- Once all eligible players have taken a kick from the penalty mark,
the same sequence does not
have to be followed as in the first round of kicks
- Each team is responsible for selecting the players from those on
the field of play at the end
of the match and the order in which they will take the kicks
- A player other than the goalkeeper who is injured may not be
substituted during the taking of
kicks from the penalty mark
- If the goalkeeper is sent off during the taking of kicks from the
penalty mark, he must be
replaced by a player who finished the match
- A player, substitute or substituted player may be cautioned or
sent off during the taking of
kicks from the penalty mark
- The referee must not abandon the match if a team is reduced to
fewer than seven players during
the taking of kicks from the penalty mark
- If a player is injured or sent off during the taking of kicks from
the penalty mark and the team
has one player fewer, the referee should not reduce
the number of players taking kicks for the other team. An equal
number of players from each team is
required only at the start of the taking of kicks
from the penalty mark
