FIFA's crackdown on time-wasting is about to go global:
However, a trial for temporary concussion substitutions was again rejected, despite fresh calls for their introduction from the Premier League.
The men’s World Cup last November and December saw stoppage time in matches reach double-digit minutes on a regular basis as referees began to more tightly enforce the laws around time-wasting, and IFAB wants this approach extended worldwide. “There are two fundamental challenges,” said FA chief executive Mark Bullingham. “One is effective playing time is really variable, you can get as much as 25 minutes’ difference. So how do you reduce that? The second thing is to ensure no incentive for time-wasting.Calls for a trial of temporary concussion substitutions were again rejected, which was expected after the decision taken at the annual business meeting in January.
