Clarifying World Cup Details

I’m thinking about the upcoming men’s World Cup in 2026, and I see there's some confusion with the mention of "明年世界杯," which might refer to 2023. But since it's currently the end of 2025, it matches with the 2026 timing. I also came across a rumor about VAR intervening in corner kicks. Any updates on VAR protocols usually come after the IFAB AGM in March, which is essential to track. Should I check with IFAB/FIFA for you?Crafting a Clear Response

I’m keeping in mind the user requests for straightforward tasks to guide communication. I want to offer options: I can either verify the source now, provide a quick explainer with pros and cons, or notify them upon official confirmation.

For the Chinese response, I'll start by briefly reacting and asking what assistance they need. I’ll outline the current VAR rules, the potential for expansion to corner kicks, impacts, procedures for changes requiring IFAB approval, and risks of controversy. Finally, I’ll suggest I can check the original report or create a brief overview.
