Yellow and red cards' origin in football
The 2026 World Cup saw changes in the card system, where a yellow card is issued for minor infractions and is canceled after the group stage. Additionally, a player who covers his mouth during a confrontation faces an immediate red card. The use of video technology also led to the cancellation of a player's card that was issued during a match, and this tournament witnessed the first expulsion under the new rule after a player was caught covering his mouth during a conversation. Cards remain a key element in modern football, and historically, the 2006 edition recorded the highest number of red cards, totaling 28.
