FIFA Proposes One-Minute Injury Rule to Combat Time-Wasting in Football
FIFA is proposing a new rule requiring injured players to remain off the field for one minute, aiming to reduce time-wasting during matches. The proposal, to be discussed at the IFAB meeting, has sparked debate about potential unintended consequences, such as teams being vulnerable while short-handed. Other potential changes include countdowns for set pieces and stricter substitution rules.
