This is probably a stupid question but what rules would be broken if one player got the ball and then his team-mates formed a hands on shoulders circle around him and they all marched into the opposition goal?

Love the way your mind works Tom 😂

I think that's fine at American "football", although I'm not exactly sure what rule covers this situation in the beautiful game.

Obstruction?

I don't know Iron.

All players have a right to their position on the field of play; being in the way of an opponent is not the same as moving into the way of an opponent.

This, and the good old referee's get out, ungentlemanly conduct.

I had a similar thought about doing a rugby lineout lift for a player at a corner for him to head it in.

Drifting off topic, but we used to do penalty “moves” in schoolboy rugby where you concealed the location of the ball until the last moment with multiple runners off a wall of several players with their backs to the opposition.

Never seen it happen in a senior amateur game, but seem to remember seeing a few random appearances in pro matches. Obv not very fashionable though.

Sol Campbell 'scored' in a similar way against Argentina in France '98 - used Shearer (I think) to climb higher, disallowed as not allowed to climb on any player to gain height, opposition or teammate. Your scenario might not be covered by this I guess...
