If a player in an offside position touches the ball just inside the opponent's goal line, what is the correct restart procedure?

The correct choice is that the restart procedure is an indirect free kick from just inside the opposing half. This is because when a player in an offside position becomes involved in active play by touching the ball, it leads to an infraction. However, since the offside violation occurred inside the opponent's goal area, the game is restarted with an indirect free kick for the opposing team from the nearest point where the ball was played, which, in this case, is just inside the opposing half.

In offside situations involving a player touching the ball, the game does not restart with a direct free kick from the goal line or a continuation of play without a call, because those would not appropriately penalize the violation. It is also important to note that the decision for an indirect free kick emphasizes that an offside player does not gain an advantage by being in that position when they interact with the ball.
