The FIFA recently introduced a mandatory extra‑time rule in the group stage when the score is tied at the end of regulation time. This measure aims to reduce the number of draws and add more excitement to the matches, but what is happening on the pitch?

This rule requires playing an additional 10 minutes in the event of a tie, with no possibility of penalties in the group stage.
