The TFF is reportedly considering extending halftime breaks in Super League matches to 30 minutes. This decision will be implemented based on the course of the practice in the World Cup final.
A striking claim that will shake up Turkish football has come to the fore.
''HALF-TIME WILL BE 30 MINUTES'' CLAIM
According to the news on HT Spor; it was alleged that the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) plans to double the 15-minute half-time period applied in Super League matches, extending it to 30 minutes.
EYES ON THE WORLD CUP FINAL
According to the claims; the biggest factor in TFF's consideration of this radical idea was FIFA's decision regarding the 2026 World Cup final to be held in the Americas. FIFA had decided to increase the half-time in the cup final to 30 minutes to facilitate Super Bowl-style grand stage shows and boost commercial revenues. It was stated that the TFF would closely monitor this global experiment and, depending on the success of the organization and broadcast flow, consider integrating a similar model into the Super League.
