Mudryk has to be the dumbest player in football history. What is he trying to do?

Even if the ball is not in the box? I guess I don't know the ins and outs that well. Been coaching U6 kids so don't have to worry about cards and pens.
Yes. The ball could literally be sitting against the corner flag on the other end of the pitch. A direct free kick foul inside the box always results in a pen.

The only way violent conduct like that wouldn't result in a pen is if play wasn't live when it happened. Then it's not a foul, but rather misconduct. In that case play would be restarted via the same method it was originally planning on being restarted by.

Ok, that makes the most sense. The not in play rule because you see lots of incidents in the box after the whistle without a pen. Thanks for all the replies.
