Description

FIFA is expanding VARs powers for the 2026 World Cup, including ruling on second yellow cards and corner kick decisions. This move aims to prevent major errors in crucial matches, despite ongoing criticism of VAR for causing delays and making questionable calls. Additionally, FIFA is trialing a new injury rule at the Arab Cup, requiring players to leave the field for two minutes after receiving treatment, unless the fouling player is carded. Any official changes for the World Cup would take effect on June first.
