Did you know if I took a free kick and scored an own goal without the ball touching anyone else the ref should award a corner to the opposition

If you only needed to draw your last game to avoid relegation, are you allowed to all stand on the goal line for the entire game, with 3 players lying on the top to totally block the goal up?

I guess you could do that but ref might interpret it as ungentlemanly conduct and start booking people. Then second bookings are sending off. Lose enough and you forfeit the game. Alternative with similar outcome would be hand balls. Kick the ball at players arms and it will be handball as they are deliberately blocking the goal that would be a sending off. Then as above. I expect there are lots of ways to quickly lose the game by blocking the goal.
