The article discusses two new experiments launched by the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) during the Gulf Cup 27 aimed at improving the rules of the game. The first relates to preventing goalkeepers from feigning injury to waste time, while the second concerns re-taking a free kick if the attacker pushes a defender and scores a goal. In the first case, if the referee detects that the goalkeeper is deliberately ignoring an injury, the coach of the team is given 10 seconds to substitute another player for one minute. If he does not do so, the team captain or vice-captain is required to leave the field. The second rule states that if the attacker pushes a defender during a free kick and a goal is scored, the goal is disallowed and the play is restarted, rather than awarding a foul. These two rules are part of efforts to develop football laws, and their outcomes will be evaluated before a formal decision is made to adopt them in the future after the tournament concludes.
