Is it possible to touch the ball with your hands in a soccer game?

No, only the goalkeeper can touch the ball with his hands. Handball is a football term, which means that when a player other than the goalkeeper touches the ball with his whole arm below the shoulder, it is a foul. But there are exceptions, such as when the player touches the ball passively, that is, "the ball hits the hand", and his hand does not move at all, then it is not considered a handball. In addition, when the goalkeeper leaves the penalty area, he cannot touch the ball with his hands, otherwise it is also considered a handball foul. The only criterion for judging handball fouls is whether the handball is intentional. Opening the arm and profiting from it cannot be used as a criterion for determining handball fouls. Intentionally touching the ball with the hand means that the player consciously touches the ball with his arm, which will definitely be penalized. Intentionally opening the arm to expand the defensive area to block the ball. When a player deliberately touches the ball with his hand and causes the opponent to destroy a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity (not applicable when the goalkeeper is in his 18-yard penalty area), he will be sent off with a red card and a penalty kick.

The game is divided into two teams, each with 11 people: 10 forwards, midfielders, and defenders, and 1 goalkeeper. Except for the goalkeeper who can use his hands in the specified area, other players mainly use their feet to kick the ball or do other actions. The game time is 90 minutes, divided into two halves. The one who shoots the ball into the opponent's goal more wins, and a tie occurs if the goals are equal.

If it is still a tie, a penalty kick is required to decide the winner.
