Paddy Power will be keeping an eye on any Xhaka free kicks that "accidentally"go into his own goalI knew that... Same for a goal kick straight to an own goal is a corner.
Throw in own goal is a corner too

Had a few conversations about laws with mates (some have been pros) and I've never met anyone that plays(ed) at any point in their career (amateur or pro) to have ever been taught the laws of the game.
It's always been a case of just watching and/or playing and picking them up as you go. Which is nuts really.
