In association football, can a goal be scored from a throw-in, and if so, has it ever been done?

Lynnie2442

Throw-In: The ball is thrown in after the ball has crossed the touch line. A player taking a throw in must have both feet on or behind the touch line, must maintain contact with the ground, and must use a two-handed throw made from behind the head. A goal cannot be score directly from a throw-in. See this site: http://www.topendsports.com/sport/soccer/terms.htm During a game, the ball remains in play as long as it stays within the end lines and the sidelines. If the ball leaves the field it is returned to play by throw-in, goal kick, or corner kick, depending on where the ball left play and who knocked it out of play. The only time that play stops is when a player commits a foul, a player is injured, or a goal is scored. See this site: http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761572379/Soccer.html Jun 16 06, 12:32 AM
