The IFAB aims to revise the law allowing coaches to interfere with play, proposing cautions instead of red cards when the coach's intent is to assist the game.
This change is prompted by instances where coaches like Arteta have, intentionally or not, influenced play, leading the IFAB to seek a more suitable disciplinary response.
The current law's rigidity was evident in multiple cases this year where coaches were dismissed, revealing the need for a more lenient approach to coaching interference.
Beyond the coaching law, the IFAB is also revising dropped ball rules, proposing that if a wayward pass goes to a referee, it favors the opposing team.
