New rules are being considered for the World Cup. According to the BBC, FIFA wants to move quickly to streamline stoppages and keep the game flowing.
The upcoming World Cup in the United States will require adapting to the American pace of life. Going fast will be the priority, with no room for wasting even a few seconds during stoppages.
Several major adjustments could be introduced at the next FIFA World Cup to combat time-wasting and improve the fluidity of play. One key proposal involves faster substitutions: a substituted player would have 10 seconds to leave the field.
If this time limit is exceeded, the incoming player would have to wait at least one minute before entering the game.
Strict Measures to Combat Time-Wasting at the World Cup
Medical assistance would also be more tightly regulated. Any player requesting treatment from medical staff would be required to leave the pitch for one minute, except in specific situations.
FIFA is also considering a strict zero-tolerance policy on time-wasting, allowing referees to start a five-second countdown for throw-ins and goal kicks.
If a throw-in is not taken within the allotted time, possession would be awarded to the opposing team. In the case of a delayed goal kick, a corner would be granted to the opposition.
Additionally, the use of VAR could be expanded, with FIFA reportedly considering allowing video review for second yellow cards and certain corner decisions in cases of clear and obvious errors.
