 Trump administration plans to end PEPFAR funding for HIV programs in South Africa over policy disputes The Trump administration plans to terminate U.S. funding for HIV initiatives in South Africa under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief due to deepening policy disagreements. The U.S. State Department is initiating a phased wind-down of financial support allocated to South Africa, which currently assists in caring for roughly 8 million people living with HIV. Established in 2003 by former President George W. Bush, PEPFAR has partnered with health authorities in more than 50 countries over the last two decades. Official data indicates the program has saved an estimated 25 million lives and averted millions of new HIV infections globally. However, following his return to office, President Donald Trump targeted the initiative as part of broader administration efforts to reduce federal government spending, focusing heavily on South Africa, which houses the world's large...

PLAYERS AT THE 2026 WORLD CUP WILL BE STOPPED FROM GOING TO THE TECHNICAL AREA TO TALK TO COACHES WHEN GOALKEEPERS ARE INJURED, FIFA REFEREES' CHIEF PIERLUIGI COLLINA HAS REVEALED.(PHOTO).

Players at the 2026 World Cup will be stopped from going to the technical area to talk to coaches when goalkeepers are injured, Fifa referees' chief Pierluigi Collina has revealed.


The International Football Association Board (Ifab) has also approved a request to change video assistant referee (VAR) protocol to allow reviews of attacking fouls that happen before the ball is in play.


The 'goalkeeper tactical timeout' has become a hot topic in recent years. It is used by a manager to get new instructions to his players, or to impact the momentum of the opposition.


In November, Leeds United boss Daniel Farke accused Manchester City goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma of feigning injury to "bend the rules" and break up play.


The goalkeeper sits on the turf and signals for the physio, the other players rush to the technical area for a team talk, then as soon as the coach has delivered his instructions, the keeper simply gets up to play on.


The Ifab has been looking at the issue, but no law change has been agreed.


Leagues have been invited to hold a series of trials throughout the 2026-27 season to find a solution.


The National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) - the women's professional league in the United States - introduced its own temporary measure earlier this year.


If a goalkeeper is injured, the players of both teams must stay where they are or gather in the centre circle.
