FIFA introduces new rules for World Cup 2026

The Federation of International Football Association (FIFA) has announced a series of rule changes ahead of the 2026 World Cup to be hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

𝗠𝗔𝗧𝗖𝗛 π—™π—Ÿπ—’π—ͺ 𝗔𝗑𝗗 π—₯π—˜π—¦π—§π—”π—₯𝗧𝗦
New measures have been introduced to speed up play and reduce time-wasting. Players being substituted must leave the pitch within 10 seconds or their replacement will be delayed by one minute. Throw-ins and goal kicks must now be taken within five seconds, or possession will be handed to the opposing team.

π— π—˜π——π—œπ—–π—”π—Ÿ 𝗣π—₯π—’π—§π—’π—–π—’π—Ÿπ—¦
Players who receive treatment on the field will be required to step off and remain out for at least one minute before returning, unless the injury was caused by a foul that resulted in a card.

𝗩𝗔π—₯ π—¨π—£π——π—”π—§π—˜π—¦
The use of Video Assistant Referee (VAR) has been expanded to include reviews of second yellow cards leading to a red card, as well as incorrectly awarded corner kicks.

π—£π—Ÿπ—”π—¬π—˜π—₯ 𝗖𝗒𝗑𝗗𝗨𝗖𝗧
Only team captains will be allowed to approach referees for explanations. Any other players who crowd or challenge the referee will be shown a yellow card.
