What is the new eight second goalkeeper rule in football?
63% Informative
Goalkeepers will be allowed eight seconds from catching the ball to releasing it.
Referees will punish goalkeepers holding on to the ball for more than eight seconds by awarding a corner to the opposition.
The rule will be implemented worldwide by 1 July , at all levels of the game from elite to amateur.
Goalkeepers would be wise not to hang on to the ball against Arsenal next season .
The Premier League is already played at a frantic pace and this will only help maintain that speed.
The focus could be better served improving the video assistant referee and avoiding prolonged delays.
The new eight second rule will be used only very much as a last resort and more as a warning.
