[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 911563, member: 55747"] Thanks. I guess my second question wasn't clear. I wasn't asking about the act of grounding itself, but more about the exact [U]limit [/U]of the place where the grounding has to happen. Using this [COLOR=#4d4dff]LAW 21: GROUNDING THE BALL 1. The ball can be grounded in in-goal: a. By holding it and touching the [/COLOR][COLOR=#ff4d4d][B][U]ground[/U][/B][/COLOR][COLOR=#4d4dff] with it; or[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]I guess my question is, what constitutes "ground"? As silly as it sounds, i am not sure to be honest. Does the ball have to touch the grass or the dirt. From your last paragraph i understand it must touch the soil/dirt. I am asking because in today's game i am 100% sure it touched the grass but i am not sure it touched the soil (very difficult to tell sometimes). Every now and then those 3 cm can make the difference. Thanks again. [/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
