I think it's 10, yeah.
I don't think we've ever seen anything like this before.
Nothing quite like this.
Obviously, we get tweaks before major tournaments.
But there are so many things for this World Cup, so many things for people to keep up with, that they're not going to realise has changed until we see it happen in a match.
Yeah.
So the idea is, as we saw in the last couple of World Cups, we had so much added time in these games, 10, 12, 15 minutes.
So FIFA's idea is that if they reduce the amount of stoppages in the rest of the game, there won't be as much added time.
Now, of course, we're going to get three minutes every half anyway due to the hydration break, which is going to be great.
But what we've got instead is we've got a countdown for 10 seconds on goal kicks and throw-ins.
And if you take too long, then possession will change.
And then that's not going to be as soon as you get the ball, you've got 10 seconds.
It's really about when players are taking too long.
Long throws aren't going to have a 10 second.
But if a team starts to take liberties with time, then the referee will start a countdown.
A really interesting one is substitutes.
substitutes have 10 seconds to leave the pitch.
If you don't leave it in that time, then the substitute can't come on for at least a minute.
And we saw this in an international friendly today between Japan and Iceland.
And Iceland didn't take a substitute off in time.
