Venecius's rule sees Hinkapi sent off in World Cup
Piero Hincapié, a defender for the Ecuadorian national team, became the second player to be sent off in the 2026 World Cup due to the "Vinicius Law," following Paraguayan player Miguel Almirón. This happened after he covered his mouth during a clash with Mexican player Santiago Giménez, and he was shown a red card in the 94th minute following a Video Assistant Referee review. It is worth noting that FIFA approved the implementation of the "Vinicius Law," which penalizes covering the mouth to utter words to an opponent, following a famous incident involving Brazilian star Vinicius during a European match.
