New rules to combat time-wasting in football are being discussed

The introduction of stricter rules to prevent teams from deliberately slowing down the game in football has come to the fore.

İdman.Biz reports that the International Football Association Board (IFAB) is working on a number of changes to increase the tempo of the game.

One of the main changes is to limit the time spent getting the ball back into play from a throw-in. At the same time, a specific time limit may be applied for the execution of goal kicks.

According to "The Athletic", IFAB will discuss this issue at a meeting next week. If a decision is made, the new rules could have a significant impact on football games in the coming seasons.
