They are definitely allowing more time this season.
However the time is still nowhere near as slow as was evidnet in the world cup pool matches.
It was more akin to the world cup final which i think was reffed under a decent compromise of giving defenders a bit of time but not letting them take the micky.

Yep. So well that the Australian coach spat the dummy and publicly abused him because he couldn't get his own way.
