Rabat – FIFA President Gianni Infantino has confirmed that a major change to the offside rule is under serious review ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Originally suggested by Arsene Wenger, the proposal would redefine offside in a way that favors attackers. Under current regulations, even a toe or shoulder beyond the line can trigger an offside call. By contrast, the new rule stipulates that a player would only be offside if their entire body is ahead of the last defender. This change could have a big impact on how football is played. It would give attackers more freedom to time their runs and stay closer to the goal without being penalized. Defenders would need to adjust their positioning and timing, while goalkeepers might face more one-on-one situations. The result could be more goals, faster transitions, and fewer interruptions due to marginal offside decisions.Infantino spoke at the World Sports Summit in Dubai, where he also mentioned other innovations being tested in 2025 tournaments. These include a “green card” system allowing teams to request VAR reviews, referee body cameras for transparency, and an eight-second rule for goalkeepers to release the ball faster. All these measures aim to make the game quicker, fairer, and more exciting.FIFA is collecting data from these trials to decide which changes will be adopted for the 2026 World Cup. If the offside rule is updated, it could mark one of the biggest shifts in football tactics in decades, encouraging more attacking play and reducing controversy over tight offside calls
>>152756397>but it makes offsides much easier to judge.not for the linespersonsrecognizing if a player is ahead at all is easier than if the player is ahead completely
>attackers spend all game with one leg outstretched just enough to be onside and just get the ball pumped long to themthanks for fixing football baldie
>>152756429Linesmen are largely irrelevant now due to VAR and goal line technology.
>Wonga ruined offsides>Arteta ruined cornersArseanal are like a little kid who destroys everything on a temper tantrum because they can't get what they want.

>>152754335Media pressure and are a shell of itself basketball version of the Yankees.Lebron's become the franchise's current face until he retires and they're trying to figure out the Reaves/Luka duo of the future.But the Lakers even when they were at their peak in the early-00s and 80s were always highlighted by their struggles when they were good and ignored on the occasions they were bad.
Are there even any lakes in LA?

How do Americans pick which handegg team they support? They're constantly moving around so it seems dumb to pick based on state. Might aswell pick the name you like or which logo you think is best?
>>152753363I like bears so pretty easy for me,.
>>152753363My team has never moved in its entire history and is in the same place where I was born. The idea that teams constantly move isn’t really true.
>>152754508>all that cowboys cancer
>>152755302mexicans abound
How do Brits pick which Soccer team they support? The players are constantly moving around so it seems dumb to pick based on personnel. So basically you're cheering for clothes.

Why are ultras/hooligans/barrabravas not common in American sports culture?
>>152752318it's time to take a break from the internet
>>152746120because it takes like 5 hours to get to the stadium from the suburb 150 miles away so you have no energy to riot anymore
>>152746120Americans are cringe and too fat to fight.They haven’t suffered like Europeans did. Which shapes character and belief,Not to mention they are totally dominated by blacks everywhere they turn.Inb4 muh guns
>>152746228they have a completely different soccer culture than we do, half the teams in the old National Soccer League (pre-A-League, which started up in 2004) were front groups for like Croatian Nazis. There are huge stigmas about "wogball" compared to their other sports where the fans are more white, non-ethnic Australian that don't exist here, there are some mexican guys who get drunk and start fights at MLS games but they do the same shit with the raiders, dodgers etc
>>152746120Pro sports are more regional than hyperlocal even in cities with multiple teams fandom is more of a vibes thing than a regional thing and people are more inclined to bandwagoning the "loser" team in the moments they're good. Since the Smaller teams are all affiliated with universities there's a formal civility that comes with it all. Our most intense rivalries involve some of our most elite learnin' facilities. So people are simply more middle class and civil due to it being Alma Materball.
Which of these division deciding rivalry games take the SNF prime time spot next week? >Bucs/Panthers>Steelers/BrownsOr the wildcard >Seahawks/49ers because the other contests are so incredibly middling. Place your bets before the 49ers game tonight for that extra feeling of foresight and deserved arrogance.
Bampu
>>152725699if Dart, Skataboo, and Nabers are healthy all season the Giants may have been in the wild card race. Next season if they get a good coach they'll be frisky. With how shit the NFCE is looking and will probably be next year too, they have a shot. The year after they should be hitting their stride if they make the right moves.
>>152709383One of these teams will win the Owl.
