An important change is expected to proceed Premier League. According to what the “Telegraph” reports, the organizing authority will instruct the ball boys & girls to stop giving the ball to the football players when it goes outside the four lines of the field.
The reason is that the organizing authority considers that the ball boys favor the home team, creating an… unfair advantage. Either by giving the ball to the team’s players and they can catch the opponent sleeping, or by deliberately delaying in case the home team leads the score.
Most, the balls will be in specific places outside the four lines of the court and on cones and the footballers will be called upon to take the ball themselves to take a throw-in or even a quick corner or free-kick that can lead to a goal.
With a more typical example Liverpool’s goal with Origiwith which the “Reds” made it 4-0 against Barcelona and qualified for the final of the Champions League in 2019.
At the same time, the ball boys will continue to exist in English league stadiums, now having the obligation to return the balls to the cones when a football player removes it from there.
Recently, there was a small episode when her coach Coventry, Mark Robbins, apologized for celebrating in front of a 13-year-old boy at the end of his side’s dramatic FA Cup victory over Wolves. Robbins had said it was “really annoyed” from the ball boy, who had earlier kicked a ball during stoppage time, while Gary O’Neill pointed out that Robbins acted “disgusting”.
Earlier this season, her goalkeeper Fulham, Bird Lenowas seen pushing a ball boy during his team’s defeat at Bournemouth, with Marco Silva to try to justify him by saying that the children outside the lines of the field are ostentatiously late.
And of course, everyone remembers his episode Eden Hazard in 2013, when he got irritated by a ball boy who wouldn’t give him the ball and to take it from his lap he threw it to the ground and kicked it, causing him to be expelled.
