Almirón Sets Record After Red Card
Paraguay national team player, Miguel Almirón, made history at the World Cup after becoming the first player to be sent off for covering his mouth and talking to another player during his country's match against Turkey, just before the end of the first half. This occurred after he directed words at him, and the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) awarded him a red card. Previously, he had also become the first player to be subjected to VAR in the tournament due to simulation. This incident comes as part of new regulations implemented by FIFA, including rules against covering the mouth and the use of VAR in cases involving yellow cards and corner kicks.
