Yellow-red card

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A yellow-red card is a sanction in team sport . Similar to a red card , a player is excluded from the rest of the game, with the red card shown immediately after the yellow card. The yellow-red card is colloquially referred to as a traffic light card because of the similarity of colors .

Set of rules

The card is shown in football if a player who has already been cautioned with the yellow card commits another rule violation in the same game , which would also have to be punished with yellow. The affected player is not replaced, which means that the number of players on the associated team decreases by one person during the rest of the game.

After a yellow-red card, play may only be restarted once the referee has given its approval. If the ball is played too early, if the rules are interpreted exactly, this will result in a yellow card for delayed play.

In Germany, in all competitions above the Oberliga, the player is banned from the next game in the same competition. In the lower leagues, it is regulated differently in the individual associations.

history

The yellow-red card was only introduced in 1991 and is actually not a card, but is signaled by the referee by showing first the yellow and then the red card. Before 1991, a player was sent straight off the pitch with a red card. It was therefore not always clear whether the referee sent him off for a second yellow card or for a rule violation worthy of a red card.

The first yellow-red card in the Bundesliga was shown to Stefan Effenberg by referee Michael Malbranc on August 20, 1991 during the game between Bayern Munich and FC Schalke 04 .

Oddities

An unofficial second yellow card and showed the Austrian referee Helmut Kohl in 1990 at the World Cup in the game Germany - Czechoslovakia the already carded players Ľubomír Moravčík , who had thrown his shoe out of annoyance. Kohl accidentally picked up the yellow card and only then showed the red card, which had fallen to the ground.

In a preliminary round match of the 2006 World Cup against Australia, Croatian Josip Šimunić was the first player to get two yellow cards by mistake before referee Graham Poll sent him off for the third offense with a yellow-red card in stoppage time . Following criticism from FIFA officials, the English referee ended his international career and soon retired entirely from his role as a referee.

On September 15, 2012, the previously not warned player Szabolcs Huszti was shown the yellow-red card for prohibited goal celebration over the same goal in the Bundesliga game Hannover 96 - Werder Bremen. He had stepped onto the fence of his own fan block and removed his jersey. Referee Deniz Aytekin saw two individual violations in accordance with the rules, each of which must be punished with yellow and issued Huszti the dismissal, but showed the yellow card only once.

volleyball

In volleyball , the yellow-red card is the most severe sanction to be imposed by the first referee . It comes in two versions, kept together and kept apart. A yellow-red card shown together means a suspension. The guilty team member (player, coach, other team officials) must leave the playing area for the remainder of the set and sit on the penalty area. A suspended coach loses the right to direct his team's game during the set. The assistant trainer can take over this right for as long. There is a suspension for the team member if he behaves abusive for the first time or if he behaves inappropriately for the second time.

A yellow-red card shown separately means disqualification. It applies to the entire game and therefore the guilty team member must leave the competition area. If the coach is disqualified, the assistant coach takes over his rights for the remainder of the game. A team member will be disqualified if they behave aggressively, abusive for the second time, or inappropriately for the third time.

Actual or attempted physical attack (assault) or threat counts as aggressive behavior. Insulting or defamatory gestures or statements, as well as contemptuous behavior are summarized as abusive behavior. A player behaves inappropriately when he transgresses recognized and decent manners, for example by complaining.

If the player was on the field of play when he was suspended or disqualified, he must be replaced with a regular substitution. If the team cannot complete itself, it will be declared incomplete. As a result she loses the current sentence. In beach volleyball , the guilty team automatically lost the set in the event of a 2-minute suspension because the player cannot be replaced and the team is incomplete for this set.

If a player who is on the field is disqualified and the team cannot complete, they automatically lose the set as well. If they cannot complete the next set either, the game is over and the team has lost. In beach volleyball, the game ends immediately in the event of a disqualification. The guilty team lost the game because the disqualified player can no longer be used and the team remains incomplete for the rest of the game. In both volleyball and beach volleyball, the opposing team is awarded the points and sets missing to win a set or game. The guilty team keeps their sets and points.
