Is it possible for a player to score a goal directly from a throw-in?

A player cannot score a goal directly from a throw-in under any circumstances, which aligns with the official Laws of the Game maintained by FIFA. The throw-in is a method to restart play following the ball going out of play over the touchline. According to the rules, the ball must touch another player before a goal can be scored. This rule ensures that a goal resulting from a throw-in would be considered invalid, regardless of the speed or conditions of the throw.

The options that suggest scoring from a throw-in—whether done quickly, under specific conditions, or after a rebound—interpret the throw-in incorrectly based on established soccer regulations. A throw-in must comply with precise execution criteria to be valid, and direct scoring is not permissible.
