The opposing players of the kicking team must be away from each other before the ball enters play. The ball must be at least 9.5 meters (10 yards).

The ball is stationary at the center point of the field

The referee gives the signal

In a football match, the winning side gets 3 points, and if the two sides tie, they each get 1 Points, 0 points for the losing side (i.e. no points).

The team with more points in the group stage advances to the next round. Usually there are two teams that advance in the group stage, sometimes one. But in some games, two teams are directly promoted, and in some cases, the third place in the group with better results can also advance. For example, if there are 24 teams participating in a competition and 16 teams are required to enter the next round, then the 24 teams can be divided into 6 groups. The top two teams in each group will advance directly, and the remaining teams with the best results will The 4 third-placed teams in the group can also advance to the top 16, thus forming the top 16.

If two teams have the same points in the group stage, it is usually based on who has more goals (number of goals scored minus number of goals conceded). The team with more goals will be ranked higher. Some games are based on the outcome of the two teams with the same number of points, with the winner ranking higher, while others only look at the number of goals scored. All competitions are different. A year after FIFA's centenary celebrations, Blatter took the field to the referee's chair in early 2005. In an exclusive interview with "France Football", Blatter advocated completely expanding the scope of "passive offside", that is, no matter how many offensive players are in an offside position, as long as they do not receive the ball, it should not be called offside.

If this suggestion is adopted, it will be another revolution in modern football. In order to encourage offense, starting in 1990, the offside rule was changed to: at the moment a teammate passes the ball, if there are less than two defensive players between the forward offensive player and the opponent's baseline, parallel play is not considered offside.

Later, in order to further encourage offense, the rules were modified again: if the attacking player is in an offside position but does not participate in the attack, he does not need to be called offside. This is the "passive offside" rule. In the Premier League, teams such as Arsenal and Bolton often use this rule to score goals, leading to constant controversy. Blatter believes that the current rules are too complicated, and his proposition is simple: "Catching the ball is offside, and not catching the ball is not offside."

When explaining the reasons for the motion, Blatter said that the main reason This is because Italian Football Association President Carraro recently proposed to UEFA to introduce television video to check whether it is offside. Blatter believes that this move is difficult to implement. "What if the video finds that the player is not offside (when the offside penalty is called)? Let the player stand back to his previous position? This is impossible. We can use TV video to check whether the ball has crossed the goal line. In other cases, we cannot use technical means To help referees. Football is becoming more and more scientific, but it is losing its human and passionate side."

Most people in the football industry are cautious about Blatter's claims.

Arsenal midfielder Pires said: "The debate about offside is always the most heated. There is a team in the Premier League - Bolton. Their forwards know how to retreat from the offside position to help the team score goals. Blatter's suggestion Will it make the referee's task more complicated? In any case, it must be tested before it can be accepted." Arsenal coach Wanger said: "From a purely technical point of view, I am not sure Blatter is the best person to make such a decision. "In fact, the FIFA president is not the one who decides to change the rules.

Pires believes that there are more urgent problems to be solved than the offside rule: "Pulling the opponent's jersey in the penalty area should be punished more often. Why can't the fourth referee monitor the game video? And let the referee on the field know who is committing such fouls so that they can be dealt with promptly?" Wangre also thought: "Why can't we use video?" In Wangre's view, some obvious misjudgments can be avoided with the help of technical means. , such as Maradona's handball in the 1986 World Cup. "That was not the 'Hand of God,' but the 'Hand of the Devil,'" Wangre said.

However, Blatter also has supporters. Italian coach Maldini believes: "Canceling (passive) offside is not necessarily a bad thing, because I strongly disapprove of using television videos to interfere with penalties on the court. . It is not a good thing to interrupt the game every time and rewatch the video. It is difficult to implement and a waste of time."

Currently, Blatter is preparing to run for the third time as FIFA president. Once elected, He will be in power until 2011. In the conversation with "French Football", Blatter also mentioned the recent racism issue in football: "The three candidates for the World Footballer this year, one is white (Shevchenko) and the other is Brazilian. Of African descent (Ronaldinho), Henry's ancestral home is the Caribbean. This is a beautiful symbol of real football." Blatter also said that FIFA will appoint Henry as an "anti-racism ambassador."

In addition, Blatter also revealed that FIFA's supplier Adidas late last year developed a football equipped with an electronic chip. Through electronic chips and signal receiving systems installed in the playing field, people can easily understand the path of the ball on the field, especially whether it crosses the goal line. This new type of football will be used experimentally in the English League Cup final on February 27 this year. If the results are satisfactory, this electronic chip may also be installed on the players' shin guards.

In order to ensure the continuity of the game, if a player is in an offside position and does not participate in the attack and prevents the opponent's defender from controlling the ball, the linesman will not raise the flag and it will not be ruled as offside. If the player encounters the above situation, it will be ruled offside. In fact, to put it simply, the judgment is postponed. For example, when the midfielder passes the ball to the player, he is in an offside position, and he also has the intention of attacking, but has not touched the ball, so the referee can not call it first. Once he touches the ball or prevents the opponent's defender from controlling the ball, this will Only then did the referee call him offside
