This video highlights four lesser-known football (soccer) rules. It begins by explaining that a referee can issue a red card to a player even before the match officially starts. The second rule states that a football pitch must have corner flags at all four corners for the game to commence. The third rule clarifies that a team can start a match with a minimum of seven players. Finally, the video explains that a player cannot score a direct own goal from a free kick; if this happens, it results in a corner kick for the opposing team.

These are four football rules you didn't know. The last one would shock you.

At number one, the referee has the right to issue a red card to a player before the game even starts.

Number two, a football match cannot begin unless there are corner flags at every corner of the field.

Number three, a football team is allowed to start a game with just seven players, as seven is the minimum number of players required for a team to begin a match.

Number four, footballers cannot score a direct own goal from a free kick. If a player somehow manages to put the ball into his own net from a free kick, it would be awarded as a corner kick to the opposing team.
