FIFA plans to allow five substitutions when football returns

The crisis of the coronavirus is a difficult problem to solve, but the sportive authorities follow working so that it go back the football. From it does weeks, the distinct organisms rectors have studied, scheduled and debated numerous alternative so that the balloon go back to film what before, and to avoid that the season 2019-20, as sucederá irremediablemente in some countries, finish giving by finished.

Go back to go in in action does not go to be easy, not even although there are pre-seasons. Players and clubs warn that they do not want to be put in risk if there are not guarantees that play would not be precipitated, but further of the contagions, the main worry in these moments, there are other variables in which think. The compression of the calendar will subject to the footballers to a requirement that will have to be very very managed.

In this sense, and as it affirms 'Sky Sports', the FIFA poses allow five replacements in the parties that are for recovering, to compensate the greater frequency of commitments and regulate in the measure of the possible the efforts of the professionals. Given the accumulation of clashes for resolving and the scarce margin that exists, this would be an interesting option to centre in the prevention of injuries.

The quoted half specifies that this solution will pose to the International Football Board (IFAB), that commissions of the rule of the football, and that still are missing several details for concretising. The first proposal that is in analysis meditaría apply this novelty to what subtracts of campaign 2019-20, to the 2020-21 and also to the tournaments of selections postponed to the summer of 2021, like the Eurocopa and the Glass America.

Also it has outlined of initial form how would apply this regulation, to avoid that his implantation affect to the usual development of the duels. Always according to this version, could establish a maximum of three spaces to do changes -in addition to the rest-, what would force to the technicians to do some double replacements to avoid more stops of the necessary and not losing time of deliberate form.

It would affect the change of the FIFA to the announcements?

This measure, still for defining in his whole, has generated several doubts, as if will have influence in the announcements or if it will apply by the same in the tournaments of all the countries. With a list of 18, still there would be margin to make a greater number of replacements, but already have heaved some voices so that, like exception, and in these moments with an overburden calendar, also approve enlargements.
