How many players can be changed in a team during a match in an official football tournament?
A
2 and maximum 6
B
3 and maximum 12
C
9 and maximum 11
D
All of the above
Correct Option:
B
Explanation
Under the rule framework reflected by this older question, up to three substitutes could be used in an official competition, while competition regulations could permit a larger bench, with up to 12 named substitutes. Modern football has changed substantially: many competitions now permit five substitutions, so this is another historical-rule question.
