During its February 28 assembly, IFAB adopted a comprehensive set of rule changes set to take effect from the 2026‑27 season. The revisions aim to curb time‑wasting tactics and introduce a refreshed VAR protocol to enhance decision‑making accuracy.
Key updates include stricter penalties for deliberate delays, clearer guidelines for VAR intervention, and a streamlined process for reviewing contentious plays, all designed to promote fair play and maintain the sport’s integrity.
