Play: A1 dives and catches a pass on the Team B’s goal line. A1 is lying on the ground with the legs and feet over the goal line, but the rest of the body and ball on the one yard line. A1 is then touched.
Ruling: No touchdown. The ball, not the player, must cross or touch the plane of the goal area for touchdown to be scored. (Rule 12.2.1)
