Time wasting should additionally be punishable by giving the other team an indirect free kick. It’s getting worse and it makes the game less watchable so I’d like to see FIFA make this change, like they did with that other time wasting tactic of the back pass. That was a hugely successful law change.
But refs don’t help themselves. He’s already booked the keeper for it so he just needs to stop his watch and go and have a long chat with him the next time and tell him he’s already been booked and this is the final warning and next time he has to tell him to speed it up he’s off. Then if he does it for a third time he’s got absolutely no excuse and will get no sympathy having been clearly and very visibly warned to cut it out.
