Detailed explanation-1: -A direct free kick is a type of free kick in soccer where the player taking the kick can score a goal without the ball touching any other player. This is in contrast to an indirect free kick, where a goal cannot be scored unless the ball touches another player before entering the goal.
Detailed explanation-2: -Direct free kick A direct free kick is awarded if a player commits any of the following offences against an opponent in a manner considered by the referee to be careless, reckless or using excessive force: charges. jumps at. kicks or attempts to kick.
Detailed explanation-3: -Scoring a goal directly from a free kick If the ball goes directly into the opposing team’s goal from an indirect free kick, a goal kick is awarded to the opposing team. If the ball goes directly into the kicking team’s own goal, a corner kick is awarded to the opposing team.
Detailed explanation-4: -Opponents must be 10 yards away. For both direct and indirect free kicks, the ball must be stationary when the kick is taken and the kicker cannot touch the ball a second time until it has touched another player. If a direct free kick is kicked directly into the opponents’ goal, a goal is awarded.
Detailed explanation-5: -The big difference between an indirect kick and a direct kick is how you can score a goal off of each. If your team is awarded an indirect kick after a foul, you cannot kick the ball directly into the goal to score. Someone else on the field (someone on your team or someone on the opposing team) must touch it first.
