Thomas Tuchel Faces World Cup Setback Due to New Rule Change

Thomas Tuchel wants to use set pieces to help England at the World Cup.

Referees' chief Pierluigi Collina is introducing a new rule to stop players from holding each other at corners.

This new rule will affect England boss Thomas Tuchel, who wanted to use set pieces as a strong tactic.

FIFA is bringing in new rules to stop players from wasting time and to improve the use of VAR.

One of the new rules is to stop players from holding each other at corners, which Arsenal has been good at.

Currently, players can push and block each other before a corner, but FIFA wants to stop this.

Referees can now use VAR to check for fouls before a corner or free kick is taken.

The IFAB has announced that VAR can be used to check for clear offenses before the ball is in play.

If a foul is found, the referee can review it and take action, and the corner or free kick can be retaken.

Pierluigi Collina is in Washington ahead of the World Cup draw.

Tuchel has been working on set pieces, but Collina is introducing a new rule to stop holding at corners.

Ben White scored a goal for England, but there were accusations of blocking, and referees have been shown this as an example.

Collina said the incident was serious and the goal should not have counted.

Collina believes the goal was unfair and should not be allowed.

This kind of scene will not be allowed at the World Cup.

The new rule has caused a backlash, as it seems to only apply to attackers, not defenders.

Collina defended the decision to use VAR to intervene in more incidents.

He asked if fans would be happy to lose a match due to a foul that was not punished.

Collina questioned whether fans would accept a loss due to a foul that VAR could not intervene in.

Ben White's goal for England would not be allowed under the new rule.
