AI Overview

Yes, a shove committed by Erling Haaland just before a corner kick was taken was correctly ruled a foul because the laws stipulate that the ball does not need to be in active play for physical misconduct to be penalized.

The incident took place during the 2026 FIFA World Cup quarterfinal between Norway and England in Miami. Right before a corner kick was taken, Haaland forcefully shoved England midfielder Elliot Anderson to the ground.

While Norway initially scored on the ensuing play, the goal was ultimately disallowed after a VAR review identified Haaland's shove as a foul, resulting in the play being called back.

According to Law 12 of the IFAB Laws of the Game, a player can commit a foul (resulting in a direct free-kick or penalty) for offenses like striking, kicking, or pushing, regardless of whether the ball is currently in play. Because a shove is classified as a physical offense against an opponent, the referee is required to penalize it whether the ball is moving or stationary9>
