2024 MTN8 Final | Victor Hlungwani | Orlando Pirates Free-Kick | Stellenbosch FC Throw-In 

2. Procedure All free kicks are taken from the place where the offence occurred, except: indirect free kicks to the attacking team for an offence inside the opponents’ goal area are taken from the nearest point on the goal area line which runs parallel to the goal line free kicks to the defending team in their goal area may be taken from anywhere in that area free kicks for offences involving a player entering, re-entering or leaving the field of play without permission are taken from the position of the ball when play was stopped. However, if a player commits an offence off the field of play, play is restarted with a free kick taken on the boundary line nearest to where the offence occurred; for direct free kick offences a penalty kick is awarded if this is within the offender’s penalty area where the Law designates another position (see Laws 3, 11, 12) The ball: must be stationary and the kicker must not touch the ball again until it has touched another player is in play when it is kicked and clearly moves Until the ball is in play all opponents must remain: at least 9.15 m (10 yds) from the ball, unless they are on their own goal line between the goalposts outside the penalty area for free kicks inside the opponents’ penalty area

Pirates second goal should have never been allowed. Taking the freekick 10 meters closer to the goal, effectively eliminating 3 defenders in doing so is clearly gaining an unfair advantage. Ref should have called him back, even after the goal was scored.

Law 13 does not end there. There is a part where it brings exceptions

So basically it's 2-0

I'm still shocked from the best referee analyst analysing like this(he is talking about free kick instead of indirect free kick) please Mr Hlongwane let's look at the referee's signal

Ngyaqal ukumuzwa ekhulum intesile neqiniso uhlalekhulum okungeyikonje bt syabongak klokhu

To agree with hlungwane pirate won by 2 nil

Rule 13.2 (procedures) Bullet 4: where the law disagnates another position. The ball Bullet 5: must be stationary Bullet 6: is in play if it is kicked and clearly moves Until it is in play Bullet 7: offending team players must be 9.15m from the ball.

My problem is this, as professional players,we were told never to back any ball especially a fowl against my team..what were those three Stellenbosch players complaining about to the referees rather than looking for the ball to make sure it wasn’t taking faster? This is genius play by the Orlando players,they are street wise two there..fabulous,they switched off ! Can’t do that..we saw Man City walker complaining he wasn’t allowed to get back to his position before Arsenal took their free kick that led to a goal,partey saw the chances and took it,VAR never interfered,Newcastle against Arsenal,ball completely out of play,willock took the ball,crossed into Arsenal 18 and a goal was scored,referees,VAR said no conclusive evidence that the whole ball went out…that is the joy in these games…players must be aware and switch on at all times…referees these days are messing up so good players are taking advantage..You aren’t the only guys playing lotto,Hollywood or betway,referees are doing it by proxy too.

Hlungwani swa mihlula humani ka swona matsandzeka swimi tsandze Maha tsutsuma na xitswiriri

50/50 so 2-0 still siyidlile i Kaizer chiefs 😂😂😂😂😂

So it's ok to disqualify pirates goal but it is not ok do the same to stellies after their throw that was taken way far from where the ball went out...and resulted in a goal....I am puzzled here Mr hlongwane...😂

So this means the gol of Stellies does not stand😂😂😂😂

There is a man down the ref blow the wsel......why does he allow the ball to be played while there's a man down.

So means pirates and Stelenmboch robbed each other

But. They. Trow. In. Must. Be. Allowd. Cause. It. Was. A. Goal

If the ball scored Pirates leading there is an issue if Stellies score it good people they have double standards

😂😂 why kaizer chiefs fans are crying

Udoti nje lo emzansi I think onompempe mele baxoshwe bonke fakwe Noma ama china akwazi ukwenza izinto ezisheshayo once

As per Mr Hlongwana refree doesn't know the rules. Then will be given refering job again?.

But can a “quick” free kick be taken when a fouled player is on the ground needing possible medical attention? Maswanganyi was fouled and on the ground, how can the game proceed under those circumstances?

Keep calm pirates ke Champs 3 times , Fault keya referee 😂

Lo othi badli ichiefs inqodo isiyep manje

lobaba ukhuluma udoti,throw in hv never been a problm here njengoba esho naye its on refs discreation

Swilo swaku swaseka🤣🤣

These GNU referees are ruining our football struu🤞🤞

The standard of officiating in our league is very poor n disgusting.

Kusho kuts siwine 2-0

Mxm you were a weak referee wena
