| Regarding Dangerous Play. In Law 12 the definition of a foul states that they are against an opponent (i.e. Kicks or attempts to kick an opponent). Now for dangerous play, that statement is missing. It just says 'Plays in a Dangerous Manner'. It says nothing about against an opponent. Should an IFK be given when a player plays in a dangerous manner near a teammate (i.e. a high kick near a teammate)?

| I would think if a player is that out of control around his own team mates and you had to stop play to settle him down then yes you would give an indirect kick to the opposition and I would also reccomend cautioning him to settle him down.

Yes, in my opinion. The dangerous play rule is there to protect all players, team-mates and opponents alike.
"Note that, in spite of our definition of dangerous play, it is very unlikely a referee would in practice penalize a player whose action created a potential or actual danger to a team-mate." In Search of Fair play, p120.
