โFIFA believe the rule has reduced unnecessary stoppages, helping matches flow better and increasing effective playing time.โ

๐จ๐ฃ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐: FIFA are VERY pleased with the impact of the new injury rule at the 2026 World Cup.
Under the new rule, if an outfield player goes down and requires treatment from medical staff on the pitch, they must leave the field and stay off for at least 1 minute after play restarts before being allowed back on.
Players are spending significantly less time on the ground and are getting back up much quicker after challenges.
