FIFA To Consider Abolishing Rebounds From Penalties

[CaaC (John) 2,444]

It's in Dutch so I would not have a clue what it reads but I'm not sure if that would be a good idea or not? 

 

Fifa is considering abolishing rebounds from penalties. If rules were changed, a free-kick to the defending side would be awarded if a team misses from the spot. (De Telegraaf - in Dutch)

FIFA wil af van rebound bij gestopte penalty

Door ONZE TELESPORTREDACTIE

Updated Gisteren, 10:10 Gisteren, 09:51 in VOETBAL

De internationale spelregelcommissie (Ifab) van de FIFA denkt na over het afschaffen van de rebound bij een gestopte strafschop.

Als een doelman een penalty stopt of de bal springt via de lat of paal of lat weer terug in het veld, dan gaat de wedstrijd verder met een vrije trap.

Ook wordt er nagedacht over nieuwe regels voor het tijdrekken bij wissels en bij een handsbal. Als een speler wordt gewisseld moet hij meteen het veld verlaten en niet via de middellijn. Een ’onnatuurlijke beweging’ beslist voortaan of er sprake is van een handsbal.

Voorlopig wordt er alleen maar gepraat over de mogelijk nieuwe spelregels. Pas op 22 november wordt beslist of er volgend jaar maart in de algemene Ifab-vergadering kan worden gestemd over de voorgestelde spelregelveranderingen.

Don't agree, i would rather ban passing the ball to someone in a penalty kick yeah Messi i'm looking towards you.

Ridiculous idea.

It would definitely add to the value of a penalty save. However, rebounds are a part of the game and there is really no reason to change the current format.

[DeadLinesman 2,966]

So are Fifa changing the rules that missing a penalty is now a punishable offence? Because that’s the only reason a free kick to the opposition can be given surely? 

[Mel81x 2,007]

I'll bet refs fuck this up too.

[Steve Bruce Almighty 2,787]

If there are no rebounds how will Courtois get a girlfriend?

[Dr. Gonzo 4,340]

FIFA should consider fucking off. This new cunt is worse than the corrupt bastard Blatter... and that's saying something.

[Danny 1,095]

Would rather they just make people run up to it normally so the keeper as a fairer chance in what is already a situation with the odds stacked against them.

Either allow rebounds in shootouts or can the rebounds on penalties in the main contest. Just be consistent one way or the other.

Maybe whenever a goalkeeper saves a free kick or a header from a corner they should ban rebounds from that too.

On a par with John McEnroe suggesting they allow let serves to count in tennis and Bernie Ecclestone's trackside sprinklers in F1.

Mongs.

It is consistent, there is no open play in a penalty shootout, there is in normal time, hence rebounds.

[Stan 9,599]

Dumb as fuck suggestion. 

They should perhaps change the existing rule that the penalty-taker can't get a rebound off their own penalty if they hit the woodwork and it comes back out. What kind of dumb shit is that? Don't see the logic in that at all.

[SirBalon 2,607]

What would this constitute as and how would they deal with this?

 

[Stan 9,599]

Bin that shit off too. Take the fucking penalty normally ffs

Remember the throwback times of MLS football penalty kicks in the 90's, that didn't last, imagine having these nowadays lol.

I can't decide whats worse there, the fact that they get to run with the ball for a bit or the fact that even though the attacker is seriously favored against the goalkeeper they still can't score. Shit way to take a penalty and I am glad its dead. Let's hope this new 'suggestion' finds its way to the place it belongs as well, the dustbin.

Is there a way to get rid of Infantino?
