FIFA, through the IFAB, has decided to implement important changes in the football regulations from 2024. In addition to the famous Wenger Law on offside, there are the new 'temporary' expulsions and other changes that we review below
The International Football Association Board (IFBA) has proposed , in group with the FIFA, revolutionise the football in 2024 with important changes in the regulation. Beginning by the Law Wenger on the offside. From the next season, the forward will be able to be by in front of the defence, as long as it keep the last part of his body in contact with his rival, an adjust that already it is testing in juvenile tournaments in Sweden and Italy.
In principle, the IFBA has not wanted to leave loose capes and comes working a lot of proofs from does years in this rule, although his implementation follows generating doubts. The own sucede with the designated expulsions 'temporary', an initiative that comes applying in the basic football, veterans and football adapted from 2017.
Like this it is the rule of the temporary expulsion
In accordance with the IFBA, "the temporary exclusion is a consistent penalty in an immediate suspension that prevents to follow participating in the party during a determinate time to a player that has committed an infringement merecedora of caution (yellow card)". The sanctions would have a length between the 10 % and the 15 % of the party, as it consider the referee.
"The philosophy of the temporary exclusions is that an instantaneous punishment can exert a significant positive influence and immediate in the behaviour of the player offender and, therefore, in his team", explains Lukas Brud, one of the strong men of the IFAB. In this sense, adds that "an expulsion programmed could be an element disuasivo greater that a warning", this in plough to combat the bad behaviour of the players.
Other changes to avoid the loss of time
Another of the evils that wants to combat the FIFA is the loss of time in the parties. The IFBA already has descartado the option of the unemployed time, but no descarta activate some formula to reduce considerably the stray time in each party. One of the alternative is that, in front of each controversial action, only the captain can approach to converse with the main judge and, if another player overlooks this, was admonished immediately.
