The new FIFA offside rule, known as the "attacker's advantage" rule, was introduced to provide more benefit to the attacking team in situations where marginal offside decisions occur. Under this rule, if there is a close offside decision, the benefit will be given to the attacker rather than the defender, allowing more fluidity in attacking play.

This rule change is expected to have several effects on football and defenders:

1. Increased attacking opportunities: With the attacker now having the advantage in marginal offside situations, it is anticipated that there will be more attacking opportunities for teams. This might lead to an increase in goal-scoring chances and potentially more goals overall.

2. Stricter defensive coordination: Defenders will now need to be more vigilant and organized in maintaining a disciplined defensive line. As the attackers get the advantage, defenders will have to ensure they have a solid line to catch attackers offside and prevent them from getting clear chances on goal.

3. More focus on referee decisions: With the new offside rule, the referee's role becomes crucial in determining marginal offside situations. The decision-making process becomes more demanding, requiring referees to have a better understanding of the rule and make quick decisions in real-time.

4. Tactical adjustments: Coaches and teams may need to adjust their defensive strategies and approaches to adapt to the new offside rule. This could involve altering defensive line positions, implementing new coordination tactics, or emphasizing faster reactions to avoid being caught out by attackers' advantage.

5. Potential controversies: Any rule change brings the potential for controversies and debates. The new offside rule may lead to discussions on the interpretation of marginal offside decisions and whether attackers are truly benefiting or exploiting the rule.

It is important to note that the exact impact of the new offside rule will vary and depend on various factors such as the league, individual playing styles, and the way referees interpret the rule. Only time will tell how football and defenders adapt and evolve under the new FIFA offside rule.

If this new rule is sustained then there would be more goals and it would be very difficult for the linesman(/assistant referee) to detect the offside, which means VAR has a lot of work to do.
