The IFAB was published by changes to be entered into Rules of the game for the next season, which should apply to competitions that will take place from July 1. Tournaments that start before said date can introduce changes now or delay them, at most, until the beginning of the next edition .
As a major change, it confirms the prohibition in goalkeepersin penalty kicks, from delay implementation hitting the posts, the crossbar or the goal net, which has to act “in a way that disturbs the penalty taker in an improper way”. A regulation that gained strength as a result of the maneuvers of ‘Draw’ Martinez, goal of Argentina, in the World Cup in Qatar to try to decenter the rivals who will throw the maximum penalty against him.
In addition, other changes were introduced, of which the following stand out:
1
Yellow and red for penalties
If the defender stops a committed attack or interrupts it, he will not be warned. But if, with the foul causing the penalty, he avoids a goal or a clear scoring opportunity, he will be penalized with a yellow card. If such a violation is committed without the possibility of playing the ball, it will be punished with a red card.
2
Purpose with unauthorized person on the ground
The achievement of a goal when unauthorized persons are on the field of play shall be void only if that person interferes with the game, unless the person is a player or coach of the team who consented to the goal. If the entry of a third party does not interfere with play, the goal is awarded.
3
Extra time
The celebration of goals will be another factor when assessing the time added to the statutory 45 minutes of each period. In this way, the time lost to substitutions or any other reason that delays the continuation of the game is added.
4
Offside
The new regulations seek to clarify the criteria to be followed to distinguish between ‘voluntary play’ and ‘offsides’, and part of the presumption that a player who is not automatically in a regulation position whenever the ball moves is clearly offside. opponent and touches the ball. . ‘Voluntary play’ implies that the defender ‘tends to control the ball and pass it to a teammate, recover possession or punt’. Failure of any of these purposes does not invalidate the ‘voluntariness’ of the act.
