Five exchanges are allowed in football matches

This is to help the team that faces many matches in the tracks of the corona crisis, which can cause a lot of wear and tear on players.

It is up to each league to decide whether or not to implement the rule, reports the Reuters news agency.

In order to avoid many interruptions to the game, swaps may be made three times and at half time.

Fifa and the regulatory body Ifab will later decide whether to extend this temporary rule change, Fifa writes in a statement.
