CAF Confederations Cup: Tornadoes Players, Technical Crew Return to the Classroom

By Daily Sports on August 6, 2019

The players and technical crew of Niger Tornadoes Football Club of Minna who are presently in Kaduna preparing for this weekend’s CAF Confederations Cup first leg against Santoba FC of Guinea, have attended an hour lecture on the new changes of FIFA laws that took effect from June 1 this year.

According to Niger Tornadoes Technical Adviser Abubakar Bala Mohammed, the essence of the lecture was to keep players acquainted with new laws of the game, with the aim of putting them to practice as the club embarks on continental assignment.

Kaduna-based and FIFA graded referee Patrick Ishaya, who took them through the session, encouraged the players to always remain disciplined while on the pitch to avoid incurring referees’ wrath.

Some of the notable changes Ishaya brought to the attention of the players and technical crew of the club include the following:

*Issuing of card to coaches for any act of misconduct.

*Players of team taking free kick not allowed to stand in the wall during free kicks, but to stay few inches away from the wall.

*Goalkeeper not allowed to move in-between the sticks during penalty kicks, but can take a step forward before the kick.

*Goalkeepers can be substituted during a penalty shootout so long the team in question hasn’t exhausted it changes prior to the shoot outs.
