FIFAはワールドカップ開催中にPK戦のルールを変更する可能性がある

Fifa could change penalty shoot-out rule with the World Cup under way

FIFA is considering a rule change for penalty shootouts that could already be applied at the 2026 World Cup, according to The Times.

The idea is that the winner of the coin toss would choose whether to take the first kick or which end the penalties will be taken at.

Currently, the coin toss determines the end, and after being tossed again, it decides who will choose whether to kick first or defend the penalties.

FIFA’s change would mean there is only one coin toss.

If adopted, the rule change would have to be made before Sunday, when the knockout stage of the 2026 World Cup begins.
