In this area, when the attacking player starts to control the ball, any attacking player should not stay for more than 3 seconds, otherwise it will be considered as unfair offensive behavior of the defending party and will be punished. The specific penalty is the conversion of offense and defense. If the attacking player stays in the 3-second zone for more than 3 seconds, it will be counted as a mistake, not a foul.
