What rule is that AAA, I have checked again and Rule 8 states: A kick-off starts both halves of a match, both halves of extra time and restarts play after a goal has been scored. Free kicks (direct or indirect), penalty kicks, throw-ins, goal kicks and corner kicks are other restarts (see Laws 13 –17). A dropped ball is the restart when the referee stops play and the Law does not require one of the above restarts.

Rule 13 - 17 have nothing to do with this situation. They cover 13 Free Kicks - 14 The Penalty Kick - 15 The Throw-in - 16The Goal Kick - 17 The Corner Kick
