World Cup 2026: Breel Embolo sent off due to mistaken identity rule
Breel Embolo of Switzerland was the first player at this year's World Cup to be sent off due to a new mistaken identity rule. He received a second yellow card for simulation after a video review, resulting in a red card during Switzerland’s quarter-final defeat to Argentina. The rule allows referees to change decisions if a player was incorrectly booked, and its first application was seen earlier in the tournament.
