New Changes To Football Laws On Backpasses, Penalties Etc by ogbiwa: 7:48am On Jun 03, 2019 |
Goalkeepers picking up backpasses (sort of), uncontested drop balls and more handball decisions - football's laws are changing again. From 1 June, there are 12 changes from the International Football Association Board (Ifab) to get your head around for next season. Some are quite trivial but several could make a big difference to the game. Drop balls Drop balls can no longer be contested, but the change is more positive than it sounds. If play is stopped, the ball will be dropped to a player on the team that last touched the ball - and where they touched it. All other players must be 4.5 yards (4m) away. What that means is if a team's attack is stopped, they will get the ball back in that position - instead of the opponents booting the ball down the field. However, any play stopped in a penalty area will be returned to the goalkeeper, even if the attacking team had the ball. Another big change now sees a drop ball awarded if the ball hits the referee and goes to the other team as a result, or if the referee accidentally scores a goal (as happened in the Dutch fourth division a week before the law change). Handballs The law remains that deliberate handball is an offence. But accidental handball will also be a free-kick if... ●the ball goes into the goal off an attacker a player gets the ball using his arm or hand and then scores, or creates a goalscoring opportunity a player's hand or arm has made their body "unnaturally bigger" ●the player's arm or hand is above their shoulder (unless the player has controlled the ball onto his own arm or hand) But a handball will not be a free-kick if... ●the ball is knocked on to a hand by the player in question or a nearby player ●the arm or hand is close to their body and "has not made their body unnaturally bigger" ●if a player is falling and the ball touches their hand or arm when it is between their body and the ground to support the body - but not extended to make the body bigger. Another change to the handball rule relates to the goalkeeper. If the goalkeeper attempts to clear ("release into play" a throw-in or backpass and their clearance fails, then they can handle the ball. Ifab says this is because "when the goalkeeper clearly kicks or tries to kick the ball into play, this shows no intention to handle the ball". Goal-kicks Another change involving goalkeepers is to goal-kicks, which can now be played to a team-mate who is inside the penalty area. The law now says the ball is considered in play once the kick is taken. Until now a goal-kick had to be retaken if it did not leave the box. It could make a big difference to teams like Liverpool and Manchester City, whose defenders could drop into the box to receive a goal-kick from Alisson or Ederson. Opponents must still remain outside the penalty area until the kick is taken. Free-kicks When a defending team has three or more players in a wall, the attacking team can no longer place a player in or next to it. If an attacker is standing within one yard (1m) of the wall when the kick is taken, they will be penalised with an indirect free-kick. Another change means - similar to the goal-kick change above - if a defending team takes a free-kick in their own area, the ball is considered in play immediately and does not have to leave the box before another player touches it. Again, opponents must remain outside the box. Quick free-kicks If the referee is about to show a yellow or red card but the non-offending team takes a quick free-kick and creates a scoring chance, the official can come back and show the card when the ball goes out of play. Before now, the card would have to be shown before the free-kick could be taken. However, if the referee had distracted the offending team by starting to show the card, the quick free-kick is not allowed. Also if the offence was going to be a red card for denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity, but the opposition take a quick free-kick, then the player will only be booked because the other team are considered to have restarted their attack. Penalties The laws have changed concerning what goalkeepers can do for penalties. The penalty kick cannot be taken while the goalkeeper is touching the woodwork or nets - or if the net or posts are still moving after being touched. The goalkeeper must have one of his feet partly on the goalline (or above it if jumping) when the kick is taken. He cannot stand behind or in front of the line. The other change to penalties means an attacker can take a penalty if he needed treatment (as long as the treatment is quick). Before now, a player would have to go off the field until after the kick was taken if he needed medical help. Substitutions A player who is being substituted must leave the pitch by the nearest point on the touchline or byeline - unless the referee says he can leave quickly at the halfway line - or elsewhere for safety or injury reasons. This change is to stop players time-wasting. Any player who "infringes the spirit of this law" will be booked for unsporting behaviour. Cards for coaches A team official guilty of misconduct can be shown a yellow card or red card. If the offender cannot be identified, the senior coach in the technical area at the time will receive the card. That new system was trialled in the EFL during the 2018-19 season and is now being introduced worldwide. The other changes ●A player can now be booked for celebrating - for removing his shirt or celebrating with the fans - even if the goal is disallowed. ●The team that wins the pre-match coin toss can now choose whether to take the kick-off or which goal to attack - previously they could only choose which goal to attack. ●There is now a difference between cooling breaks (90 seconds to three minutes) and drinks breaks (maximum of one minute) in certain competitions played in high humidity and temperatures. ●Multi-coloured or patterned undershirts are allowed if they are the same as the sleeve of the main shirt. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/48382254 15 Likes 4 Shares

Nothing has changed in the handball rules. We will still see many of it's controversies. The question is when it come to referees discretion. These referees just bullheadedly play by the rules without considering the intention of the players 1 Like |

They will soon change that rule about the goalkeepers allowed to catch the ball if their clearance from a throw in or back pass fails. Come and see how goalkeepers will be forming missed clearance so they can handle the ball when under pressure |
