FIFA will debut a new rule to combat time-wasting at the Arab Cup in Qatar from December 1-18. The measure requires injured players to stay off the field for about two minutes, leaving their team short-handed. The initiative, backed by president Gianni Infantino, aims to enhance the flow of matches ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
