#2 Backpass rule revised and Tackling from behind severely penalised
After the 1990 FIFA World cup concluded, the post analysis of the tournament yielded some inefficiencies in regards to the guidelines that still needed to be revamped. One of the issues that came along was the deliberate handling of backpasses made to the goalkeepers at that time. The International football Association Board (IFAB) revised the back pass rule and declared that a pass played behind to the goalie would have to be dealt with his feet. Should the pass be made by a header will imply that he can grab the ball with his hands.
In General, a reaction of reluctancy came after the announcement of the new rule. But the globally set standard is now very much acknowledged. In addition to it, the rule of tackling from behind was altered in 1998 as it was qualified as a red card offense. The vision to make footballing inclined more towards the offensive side took a major leap and the game looked attractive than its previous editions.
