At its Annual Business Meeting (ABM) held in London on Tuesday, IFAB focused on measures to improve participant behaviour in football and increase respect for match officials; it was agreed sin bins for dissent and specific tactical offences should be trialled at higher levels
Biggest issue with those fouls is that the rules currently only caution players if advantage isn’t played.
So defenders can blatantly impede an attack and impact it heavily, but if attackers keep the ball and a free kick isn’t given to there is no punishment.
Is that specific to professional fouls? Because referees are 100% allowed to return to a foul they played advantage on and give a card. I’ve never heard of the laws stating they cannot.
Biggest issue I have with the sport is how binary a lot of the rules are despite how low scoring it is. Sending offs and penalties basically kill a lot of games but there is basically no middle ground to them really. Sin bins are a great start imo, next I would love more indirect free kicks in the box.
This is class, would rather them do it for professinal and intentional fouls that dont quite equate to a red but a yellow is not enough
