Ƙarancin laifuka, gudu mai ƙarfi

Falsafar da ke tuka wannan canji ta fito daga Pierluigi Collina, shugaban alkalai a FIFA. Collina yana so a kula da ƙwallon ƙafa a matsayin wasa mai taɓi inda ba kowane tuntuɓe ke buƙatar busa sarewa ba, kuma yana ƙarfafa wasanni masu gudun sama. Bayanai suna tabbatar da hanyarsa: yawan laifuka a wasa ya sauko daga 27 a Gasar Duniya ta 2018, zuwa 25 a Qatar, yanzu kuma zuwa 21.7 a FIFA World Cup 2026 — kusan daidai da 21.6 ta Premier League a kakar da ta gabata.
