To put it simply. I red card behavior that I do not want to see again ever. I yellow card behavior that I don't want to see again that game. Of course, one can make it more complicated than that, but it's a good starting point in my opinion.

I hope football/soccer will be more popular in America in the years to come

[@trap8776]

It is growing rapidly, now that Messi and others have joined it WILL be massive, I'm calling it, by 2030, Football will be more popular than American Football.

it's popular in schools, and it will probably grow into all of the us as someone who lives in the us

Question: has anyone ever been sent off for going in the video operations room?! That's a new one for me

[@rubenmc6347]

Well thats almost impossible except you really just walk inside it.

[@maxxiong]

There have been yellow cards following the ref to the screen. Entering VOR would probably only happen if the VOR is on the pitch lol

[@andrewburgemeister6684]

Imagine the ref following you going to the VOR to give you a red card haha.

Could you still get a red card if you’re last man ( but on the other team’s side of field ) and grab your opponent from his uniform and prevent him from leading a counter attack? Every player in your team is on the other team’s side of the field attacking they lose the ball striker gets it and you tackle him while still on his team side of the field to prevent an counter attack.

[@michaelbrandt6260]

It's really late, but yes - that's a red card for DOGSO. Happened in the Real/Chelsea game yesterday, though it was more on the edge of the penalty box.

[@IjeomaCaroline-qn4jh]

I'm about to officiate a Match tomorrow and it's my first time, I'm in a panic state, I need help

[@searjo70]

Can you please elaborate on dogso the scond part because we as unprossional footballers have a confusion on that part. We say if the defending player is the last player left with the offending player and makes a foul then only in this case, he must be sent off. But if there is another defending player parallel to that player who made the actuall foul if there is a 6 meters distance, we as fans say that player mustn’t sent off.. he should be awarded only a yellow card. Can yup please comment on this situation please?

[@antonija7163]

seems like he cannot elaborate on anything. everyone can read the rules of the game. I expected more from this video. too short and wiithout much explanation. "you get the idea..."

[@nelsonroy4157]

This would entirely depend on the distance to goal, direction of the attack, and the speed of both players. If there is a likely chance that the second defender could have cut off their opponent before they could take a shot, then it should not be a sending off. But if the second defender has no realistic chance of legally stopping their opponent before they get in a promising position to shoot, then it would be a red card.

In UK premiere league Dogso's in the box always seem to result in a panalty. I've never seen someone get a red for a dogso, unless it was violent. How come?

[@mehmetcanpala4986]

Probably they saw the situation as SPA

[@nelsonroy4157]

Several seasons ago, the IFAB determined that giving a red card and a penalty kick was not a fair penalty for some fouls in the penalty area, so they modified the rule. A DOGSO offence that occurs for a challenge which was an ATTEMPT TO PLAY THE BALL where a penalty kick is awarded will only be sanctioned with a yellow card. The attempt to play the ball rule is an important distinction here, as getting stuck in or making a desperate slide challenge (if safe) will only result in a yellow, but pushes from behind or handball offences will still earn you a red card, even if a penalty kick is given.

[@blackfalcon1324]

Sending someone of for DOGSO seems strict. Isnt that the point of a penalty? I guess penalties only have a 70% conversion rate, so I guess there could be opportunities where taking a penalty would be the better option.

[@sharath1857]

Penalty is only restricted to 18 yard But Dogso can happen even in counter attack

No just no

[@Red-Red-Red-Red]

@@tompullen7056 i believe it will revolutionise the game. We just need to figure out what each of these colors/colours would represent? I had some ideas. Pink card: Given to players where physical/intimate contact took place Black Card: A card forcing the player to leave the premises of the Stadium following a severe incident and automatically banning them for 6 games. Green Card: Allows a previously 'sent off' player to rejoin the game

Do you card 12U extra(tryout teams)?

[@frpgplayer]

I card any age depending on league rules. If the league doesn't allow cards, ok, no cards. Now, I know refs that laugh when I tell them I used cards in u12. If cards are allowed, I use them as appropriate. Realize the age kids switch from recreation to competitive is around 10-12. Players are starting to not only play better, they begin to make cautionable actions. What a referee handles in u6 u8 u10, the game picks up. Of course, bad habits exist until its countered. At u12, I have more statues on free kicks, pushes in the back, legs stuck out to trip, pushing keepers on corner kicks, etc.

[@Butters5498]

It was either serious foul play or violent conduct. Also, the restart can be different.

OFFINABUS and dissent are 2 different things, dissent is caution and OFFINABUS is a send-off.

Agreed. Dissent is yellow. SFP, VC, DOGSOF, DOGSOH, AOI, S, 2YC, and the new VOR. Team officials: there's more.

uhh ok tysm

[@ryanleichty4849]

Can you please do a yellow card for me too

[@charlessmith263]

Obviously, these actions will mean you need to show a red card and send the player off the pitch.... 1. On a defensive tackle, the defender uses the cleats or spikes to intentionally lacerate the opponent's legs when the opponent falls. The defender gets the card. 2. When, in a confrontation between players after the whistle, either one does a sucker punch at another and connects, or either one does a wrestling slam to the ground. The one who instigated the punch or slam should be booked. 3. When a player does unacceptable, intentional, unsporting "dissent" at a referee, or does any intentional physical contact to the same, whether it was or without intent to injure the referee. 4. Using a soccer ball to intentionally aim at or strike the referee if a player has the ball, whether or not the play is dead.

If a player kicks a dog who has run onto the F O P should he be sent off

I think a yellow card should be used if they kicked the dog not so hard but a hard kick should be a red

How many matches is a player banned from playing after receiving a red card?

[@zorrow_]

In the premier league, if the red card is a second yellow, they are banned for one match. If it's a straight red, they are banned for three matches.

[@MEEKMILLBonus-nn8qe]

[@charlessmith263]

In some cases, a second yellow card on a player means the player is ejected. But it also depends on the type of soccer game. In the World Cup, a person who gets a second yellow card is not ejected from the game the player is playing right now, but IS EJECTED from playing the next game--aka "suspended" from playing the next match. In some cases, a World Cup soccer referee will show a yellow card first to a player, and then, release the red card later in just a few seconds, for some serious violations or fouls in the match.

[@hateterrorists]

That's not quite right, the second yellow card in two matches forces the player to miss the next game, it doesn't mean they're not sent off for two yellows in a single match. The ref when showing the second yellow, will follow with a red to send them off as they've accumulated two yellows.

[@joethegamer5582]

Show it to the right person too bro😒

[@markbuikema7248]

DOGSO is not always a red card... If, in a DOGSO situation, the foul is inside the penalty area, and it was a genuine attempt to play the ball (no trip, no pull, possibility to play the ball), then a YELLOW card should be shown instead of a red.

[@wildandatum8402]

No. It's football. Not soccer

[@naomilikessleeping]

I dont really think that pushing hardly is a red card it should be a yellow card because in my soccer if you push hardly you get a yellow card if yoy do that the same pushing hard twice then Red Card
