Starting 2025-26, goalkeepers facing a new eight-second rule will give up a corner for holding the ball too long.
The International Football Association Board (IFAB) has introduced a new rule starting the 2025-26 season: if goalkeepers hold the ball for more than eight seconds, the opposing team will be awarded a corner instead of an indirect free-kick.
This rule aims to reduce time-wasting by goalkeepers and was tested in youth leagues with positive results.
Other changes include only allowing team captains to speak to referees about decisions, and referees explaining VAR decisions via stadium announcements.
