France goalkeeper Mike Maignan mocks the penalty rules after being penalised when saving a spot-kick at Euro 2024.
France goalkeeper Mike Maignan has expressed his frustration at the penalty rules after he was penalised for coming off his line too early when saving a spot-kick at Euro 2024.
He also joked: "New Ifab rules for penalties in 2026: Goalkeepers must have their backs turned at the time of the shot. In case of a save, an indirect free-kick."Maignan included a link to a story from 2023 about new rules from football's law-makers Ifab, stating that goalkeepers are not allowed to do anything that "unfairly distracts the kicker", such as touching the posts or crossbar.
Penalty takers are allowed to feint their run-up, but cannot feint taking the kick once the run-up is complete.
