Football's new rules

Football is full of drama. And not always the good kind. The sport is having to deal with walk-offs, weird insults and a World Cup that should come with sunscreen included.

It's a lot. But the game's governing body FIFA is hoping a few rule changes will sort things out. The new rules will take effect at the 2026 World Cup, held in the US, Mexico and Canada. CGTN's Michael Marillier gives a quick guide to some of the changes.
