Are they imagining a goalkeeper punching the ball from their own penalty area all the way into the opposition goal? Don't think even Ederson can do that - but would love to see it, even if it is ruled out!
Ha, no. It's to cover a goalkeeper up for a corner.
The standard rules say a keeper can handle the ball in the area, this is to point out specifically that an outfield keeper can't accidentally knock the ball in.
I'm fairly certain it's as likely to happen as a corner going into the attacker's goal - that doesn't count either.
