Original Note:
This is misleading as it does not apply to Free Kicks. This rule only applies to penalties in the situation where a denial of goal scoring opportunity is also a penalty. This rule has also existed for years, most notably the foul by Jones on Hazard in the 2018 FA Cup final. https://www.thefa.com/football-rules-governance/lawsandrules/laws/football-11-11/law-12---fouls-and-misconduct
