- What does "second-last opponent" mean? (in sentence "A player is in an offside position if he is nearer to his opponents’ goal line than both the ball and the second-last opponent." - Phrase book)
- I think the sentence about offside in the quiz is correct, in phrase book is not.
- I think handball is when a player touches the ball, not matter how deliberately or incidentally.
- The fourth official doesn't decides how much extra time, he decides injury time (I learned it in earlier lesson).

Thank you, Rich.
1. Now I understand the word "second-last"
2. I will read the phrase book again to check and reply.
3. If a player touches the ball in penalty area, no matter deliberate or accident, there will be a penalty, right?
4. OK.
Yes, I like this website. I try to take times to visit and learn everyday. Thank you for your support.
