The International Federation of Association Football (FIFA) approved on Saturday a new package of measures aimed at speeding up the pace of matches and reducing time-wasting. These measures are designed to increase the dynamics of the game and make it more attractive to spectators. In particular, this refers to stricter control over time-wasting by players. New rules for referees will also be introduced so that they can make decisions faster. FIFA hopes that these changes will have a positive impact on the quality of games.
