<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Shakespeare most likely will retain the 4-2-3-1 scheme in this fight, in which Jamie Vardy will be re-plotted as the spearhead. Vardy will be aided by the movement of Marc Albrighton, Shinji Okazaki and Riyad Mahrez sector attacking midfielder. Kasper Schmeicel still be designated as a goalkeeper, where the duo Robert Huth and Wes Morgan will be in charge dampen Sevilla attack in this match.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With such conditions, Sampaoli will likely play a 4-2-3-1 scheme in which Stevan Jovetic will be plotted as a main striker in this match. In midfield, Sampaoli will entrust Steven N'Zonzie and Mathias Kranevitter as a regulator of their attacks. Adil Rami will return unloaded at Sevilla defense, while Sergio Rico will return to be a goalkeeper sevilla in this match.</div>

IFAB Crucial Role In Evolution Football Rules

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Footballpedia.net</b> - As one of the sports that involve a lot of people in the game, football has a complex regulation. However, these regulations are made to ensure a match runs smoothly.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But you know, who makes the rules in football?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Is the International Football Association Board which determines the Rules football game. As quoted theifab.com, "IFAB is a universal decision-making body for the Laws of the Game in football association. The goal is to maintain, prepare and change the law in the sphere of football organized by FIFA, including ensuring that the Laws are applied simultaneously throughout the world and monitored and practiced consistently. "</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
IFAB is formed long before a football game as it is today, precisely in 1886, and since then acts as the "guardian" of international law.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
IFAB own formation history can not be separated from the regulatory differences between the four football associations in the United Kingdom; namely the Football Association (FA), Scottish Football Association (SFA), the Football Association of Wales (FAW) and the Irish Football Association (IFA). The existence of differences in regulation in each of these associations later sparked trouble convening international matches, so when the action takes place, the regulations cage team was the one used.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although quite running smoothly, but 'team rules cage' is not considered ideal to keep running. Therefore, the fourth of the football association held a meeting in Manchester on December 6, 1882, to establish rules that can be applied in the game between the team members of the United Kingdom. Then when FIFA was established in Paris in 1904, they agreed to comply with the rules of the game set by the IFAB.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Over time, the Rules of the IFAB experienced a number of changes. One result of the meeting of IFAB most popular to date is the regulatory back-pass to the goalkeeper. According to Law 12 section 2 in the Law of the Games, a goalkeeper is not allowed to hold the ball as teammate intentionally kick the ball to him or receive the ball the throw-in from teammate However, goalkeepers were still allowed to receive the ball using other body other than the hands.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Regulation of the back-pass was made starting from the 1990 World Cup when Ireland goalkeeper Pat Bonner considered stalling because he kept control of the ball for over six minutes in the game against Egypt to continue to dribble around the penalty box and pick it up again when the attacker approached opponent. Regulation of the back-pass was then formally introduced in 1992 so that the goalkeeper is no longer wasteful of time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Other rules that often cause controversy in the field is about off-side. As stated in Law 11 of the Laws of the Game, a player is declared offside when he was closer to the opponents' goal line than the ball and the second last opponent player.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCH0P94GA8JQqTLONR1jwYFkdSJmvkBclRrNuWlRk5Fn91lxfUsgOSqrOO6-x9LjYZ_tg4PJZYe-tBONIDyzwqKIKI5PfljkAlgaazv5XVMTDZIEXeNojHXCLpibvfg6ZQS-u_ZeT0fr8/s640/off.JPG" width="640" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Offside itself is not an offense, but when this happens the referee to stop the match and give the indirect free kick to the opposing team who subjected offside. In practice, often debatable offside in the match on objectivity assistant referee's position players.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" height="464" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhX40-Zxs-evLA_wfXnze2IeuZqyT-pRV3AgiAn8TXV8ogX0I26BbsSn1PjMZvQ0xbaMF95g0IS9jhSfEzVDmE7HAL677EPt6HkYPr-JGecYR70KU_rQ1rghXyah1Xi1HvDHnsYruhWMoY/s640/assi.JPG" width="640" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Other issues were also busy talking about is the addition of additional assistant referees, which place in addition to the back of the net. The presence of additional assistant referees is useful to assist the courts of the pitch control of the area, which usually go unnoticed. The addition of two assistant referees have been done in a Europa League match in 2009 and the IFAB agreed to extend the experiment to other competitions, especially the Champions League after a meeting of the IFAB technical sub-committee on May 18, 2010.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The addition of the assistant referee has the support of a number of parties, including the Euro 2016 referee Mark Clattenburg.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I've had a direct view from the sidelines. It was so different from the position of the referee. You see immediately that position from the front and not from the side or the viewpoint of the referee, "said Clattenburg football tournament in France ahead of the middle of last year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I think now the players know if they push or pull in the penalty area in a game at UEFA, then they will be punished."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ahead of the 2016/17 season, IFAB also inaugurated the rule change, one of the rules of the kick-off. If before kick-off in the middle of the field carried by two players, in this new regulation first football can be done by one person and kicked in all directions, including backwards.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

"We are calmer in the second round and a better position. We are getting better and have a chance to make the score 3-2.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Footballpedia.net</b> - Surprising decision taken by <b>Raphael Maitimo</b>. Descendants of Dutch midfielder was decided to split with <b>PSM Makassar</b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the past year, Maitimo plays for Arema FC. But after the tournament Indonesia Soccer Championship (ISC) A 2016 ended, he decided to leave from the club Malang.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Maitimo then decided to cross over to Sulawesi and join the PSM. But barely two months, he decided to leave the club nicknamed the Juku Eja</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The decision he lay in a press release on Wednesday (08/03/2017). From there, it is known that Maitimo out of PSM because of differences in vision between himself and PSM coach, Robert Alberts.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Maitimo itself quite saddened by the decision. Moreover, PSM judged to have a good chance to be champions next season.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here are the contents of the Maitimo release:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thank you to all the relevant agencies will ask my professional status. First of all I want to apologize for my delay to provide clarity. Due to one another, and the PSM I can not give a statement until today.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Maybe some of the colleagues know that after my farewell from Arema, there are some clubs very seriously trying to recruit me. It even offers a fantastic figure, but because of the greatness of the club PSM, fanaticism of Macs Man, the club's ambitions, and the support of ownership incredible, I became very interested in being part of this team. Therefore I decided to join the PSM. I am very grateful to get the opportunity to participate in defending the PSM during the Presidents Cup even though the results have not been up.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But after a month of running in PSM, I spoke at length with coach and there seems to be little difference in vision technically in how I will be maximized for the team. I strongly deplore this situation because I really enjoy playing with PSM and I believe this team has the material to be candidates for this year's champion. But I do not want to be a burden for the team and I am very aware that no player is bigger than the club.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So to keep and maintain the principle of family ties, along with my coach and club management have agreed to part on good terms. As for the responsibility that I should meet to the management of this situation because I'll finish.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
PSM to a large family, I apologize profusely if my actions were considered less pleased. This is a very tough decision, but because I really respect the PSM, I feel better resolved as soon as possible so that this team can build the best formation with certainty. I regret can not be a part of the PSM, but I believe this team can definitely make a surprise in the top league Indonesia. Therefore, I take my leave first, I hope for the best for the PSM and to meet again on the field #EwakoPSM.</div>
