Admin phantom Posted May 20, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 Some interesting one's being brought in, but does seem odd to make these changes for the final rather than from the start of a new tournament Attacking players can no longer infiltrate defensive walls of three or more players at free-kicks. Instead, the attacking side must be at least 1m away from the wall or concede an indirect free-kick. Goal kicks and free-kicks inside your own box no longer have to leave the penalty area to be “in play” although the other side are not allowed inside the area until the ball has been made live. Drop balls can now be given straight to the goalkeeper if play was stopped inside the box. Outside the box, the ball will be dropped for the team that last touched it and all other players from both teams must be 4m away. If an attacking player uses his hand or arm to either score or create a goal-scoring chance, even if accidentally, it will be a handball offence and the goal wiped out. Any incident of the ball striking the arm above shoulder height will be handball, unless the player kicks or heads it against themselves. Handball will be deemed if any player has made themselves “unnaturally bigger” - by throwing arms out. This is the “natural silhouette” interpretation. At a penalty, the goalkeeper now needs to have only one foot on the line when the kick is taken. Keepers are not allowed to touch the post, bar or net before the kick is taken. A substituted player MUST leave the pitch at the nearest point, rather than only on half-way as before. This should cut down time-wasting. Coaches and managers will now be handed red and yellow cards at all levels for misconduct. This happened in the EFL this season but not the Premier League The side winning the toss will have choice of kick-off OR ends In a change to Uefa regulations, up to 12 players will be allowed on the bench for European finals. Prem clubs are expected to stick with seven on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse With No Name Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 Number 5 seems particularly pointless. Why on earth should a keeper not be allowed to touch the post or wobble the crossbar before the kick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he only needs to have one foot on the line, so I assume as long as he does he can take a massive stride forward towards the kicker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why on earth should a keeper not be allowed to touch the post or wobble the crossbar before the kick? To be honest that does make sense to me. I've noticed some keepers pull down on the bar, giving it a pretty signifcant wobble. It probably moves up and down by at least 2-3cm on some occasions. If a penalty taker was to hit the bar on its downward wobble, it could be the difference between bar and in, and bar and out. A tiny and unlikely margin I know, but a margin nonetheless!

I believe it simply means that if any part of your arm is above shoulder height, and the ball strikes it, it's handball.

It will be interesting how many of these laws the efl/premier league will be use in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityexile Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 4, above shoulder height is an interesting one if the defender is on the ground, which I have certainly seen happen. I assume it means above your shoulder, whatever dimension you are in, if you catch my drift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What it does mean though, is if a player leaves the field on the opposite side to the dugouts, he has to walk round the pitch to get there while the game is going on. Will be confusing for the linesman on the other side to see if the player walking along is actually involved in the game or not when giving offsides. Hence why substitutes when warming up are given tabards of a colour not used in the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be, but it was changed so that the side winning the toss only gets to decide ends and then the other team automatically gets the kick off in the first half. Not sure why they changed it originally, or indeed why they've changed it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
