QUESTION FROM A GRADE 9

Question:
If the ball is in play at one end of the field and I see a foul or a misconduct  at the other end or away from the play how should be ruled

USSF answer (April 14, 2008):
Thank you for an excellent question. You should stop play and deal with the infringement in accordance with the Law, even if that means, for example, awarding a penalty kick at the far end of the field. Now, if only some of our more experienced referees would recognize this fact, we would all be better off.
