Can someone help me out here...

This is from another forum I'm a member of...

Here's the question...

ITS THE FINAL OF THE FA CUP AND NEWCASTLE ARE LOCKED 2-2 WITH ARSENAL WITH A MINUTE TO GO.SHEARER GIVES AWAY A INDIRECT FREE KICK IN ARSENALS PENALTY BOX. LEHMAN STEPS UP TO TAKE THE KICK AND ENDS UP KICKING IT INTO HIS OWN NET. WHAT IS THE REFEREE'S DECISION? REFEREES AND THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILY ARE INELIGIBLE TO ENTER

I say it's a corner... someone else says the kick must be retaken...

Someone resolve this...

corner kick

Thanks! :ewan:

if he kicks it into his own net isnt that an own goal????

Goals can't be scored directly from indirect free kicks

basically the first part of that story is pretty irrelevant,
exept setting up the mood i guess lol
