Are the same... Unlawfully impeding an opponent. Pressure, contact, leaning, etc. not unlawful. Pushing, tripping, kicking, standing on feet, unlawful. BUT still have to impede to count.
There is no entitlement to go down. Nor should it be necessary to go down to get a decision. |  |

I thought impeding, formally obstruction, resulted in an indirect free kick? |  |

Unfortunately they are not the same. The contact required to impede a tank is different to the contact required to impede a bicycle. One defender's leaning on a tank, is another defender's brutal assault of a bike rider. Players, unfortunately, will always try to assist referees in their decision making.
Football needs its Messis and Iniestas as much as its Haalands, so there'll always be the imbalance of tanks and bicycles and therefore referee subjectivity. |  |

it should be, but its never applied these days. so many times blatant obstruction goes unpunished. |  |

I now have a vision of Erling Haaland on one of those tiny clown bikes pedalling furiously towards goal.
Quantum Internet Theory means someone has just produced a Tick-Tock meme of exactly that. |  |

Weirdly enough, it's quite an easy image to conjure up in the mind. | |

They'll be weighing players next, pre game, to decide their " Impede factor " :). I'd say a trip on Haaland is the same as a trip on Messi. Upper body contact is admittedly more difficult to decipher. |  | | |

Its nothing to do with strength .. it's whether you have prevented them doing what they are trying to do through foul means. | |

Pretty sure neither tanks or bicycles are listed as permitted match equipment. |  |
