IFAB sets new rules to speed up games
The Straits Times
|March 02, 2026
The International Football Association Board (IFAB) approved on Feb 28 measures aimed at speeding up the pace of matches and cracking down on time-wasting, with the changes set to come into force at the 2026 World Cup and across all other competitions.
-
The changes were agreed at IFAB’s 140th annual general meeting (AGM) in Wales.
The extension of the countdown principle to throw-ins and goal kicks is one of the significant new rules.
If referees consider that a throw-in or goal kick is taking too long or being deliberately delayed, they can initiate a five-second visual countdown.
Failure to restart play before the countdown expires will see possession handed to the opposition — throw-ins awarded the other way, and delayed goal kicks punished with a corner.
