The tweak to the handball law will become effective on July 1, although competitions will retain the flexibility to introduce changes prior to that date.
The Premier League’s stricter approach to the new handball law could result in players hesitating to use their arms to protect themselves during aerial challenges, former England midfielder Ryan Mason said on Tuesday.
Why not do away with the rule entirely? Other sports, such as volleyball and basketball, allow players to use both hands and feet!
Accidental handballs are no longer penalized in football!
The FIFA handball rule, especially the “unnatural position”, is completely without sense.
