About professional foul

In various sports, a professional foul is a deliberate foul which curtails an imminent threat from the opposition, where the prescribed punishment for the foul is less damaging to the fouler than the opposition carrying out the threat would be. Professional fouls are usually committed to prevent an opponent from scoring.
