IFAB have changed some smaller details for the rules of the game in summer:

To name some,

1) Subs warming up​

A slight tweak is that from this season, the number of substitutes allowed to warm up at the same time on the perimeter of the pitch during a match has gone up from three to five players per team,
as teams are able to make 5 substitutions at any one time.

2) More accurate calculation of added time

From this season, when a goal is scored, match officials will only start adding time on to the end of the match when the delay between the goal and the subsequent kick-off exceeds 30 seconds.
Given that there were 3.28 goals scored per match last season on average, this change may result in a significant drop in stoppage time this season.

3) Penalty kicks
Firstly
, there is a clarification that when the penalty-taker places the ball, part of the ball must touch or overhang the centre of the penalty mark.

Secondly, encroachment by players at the moment the penalty is taken will be penalised only if it has an impact (to save VAR time), following the same philosophy as goalkeeper encroachment at a kick.
So, for a defender, his encroachment will be relevant only if he either has an impact on the kicker or, in the event that the ball rebounds into play, prevents a goal or prevents a goalscoring chance.
For an attacker, his encroachment is relevant only if he impacts or distracts the goalkeeper, scores a goal or creates a goalscoring chance.

Bundesliga refs are also being asked to look for clean throw-ins
and a stricter 6-second-rule for keepers with the ball in their hands, to avoid time wasting.

Enough room for new discussions in various situations, guaranteed...
