The policy of 5 players per game is a temporary policy introduced by FIFA when football matches gradually resumed in May this year, in order to protect players after a long off-season and reduce the risk of injury when faced with a dense schedule.
In order to ensure the smoothness of the game, each team can only make 3 substitutions, and a total of 5 substitutions can be made. Substitutions can also be performed during the intermission and do not account for the number of substitutions.
In the new season, the major European football leagues have returned to the normal one-game cycle. The Premier League has previously announced that it will return to the policy of 3 players per game.
However, the Bundesliga still chose to follow the policy of 5 substitutions, which will benefit more young players to play.
The new Bundesliga season will start on September 19, Beijing time.
