The IFAB has issued a ban on snoods, while experiments on goal-line technology will continue.
Football's lawmaking body bans neck-warmers
The International FA Board has announced the wearing of snoods will be banned, while experiments on goal-line technology will continue for another year.
The IFAB, football's lawmaking body, says snoods - the neck-warmers beloved by several Premier League players - will be banned with immediate effect.
Fifa said in a statement: "The IFAB agreed that in relation to Law 4 - Players' Equipment, the wearing of snoods should not be permitted."
The meeting of the IFAB in Newport on Saturday also agreed to allow Uefa to use its system of five match officials at the Euro 2012 finals in Poland and Ukraine next year.
The ruling on goal-line technology comes despite 10 systems failing Fifa tests last month.
Football Association general secretary Alex Horne declared himself "fairly satisfied" with the outcome of the meeting.
Not perfect
Horne said: "It's not perfect because we wanted to get the principle of goal-line technology adopted.
"Given where we were last year when it got thrown out that was my worst fear that it would happen again.
"My preferred position was we accept the principle and wait for the technology to prove itself.
"We are now in the position where they want to look at the technology in different environments and then we will make a decision in March next year.
"That's why next year's meeting will be so important."
Chuck Blazer of the United States, one of the four Fifa members of the board, said he was also satisfied with the outcome of the meeting and that the decision to continue with technology testing was "very welcome".
