102 Guidelines for Referees5. Positioning – free kick [1]During a free kick, the referee who is nearest takes a position in line with theplace from where the kick is to be taken and checks that the ball is properlyplaced, as well as watching the players for encroachment while the kick is beingtaken. The referee furthest from the place from where the kick is to be takenmust take a position in line with the second-last opponent or the goal line, whichis a priority in any case. Both referees must be ready to follow the trajectory ofthe ball and run along the touch line towards the corner arc if a direct free kick istaken towards the goal and they are not in line with the goal line.
