WHY A YELLOW CARD AND WHEN A RED CARD.

The football law clearly has seven reasons for the referee to show a yellow card , they are as follows.
1) It is shown for any thing considered unsporting .
2) Dissent by both word or by action. Even not giving the ball to the referee at half time is a yellow card.
3) Repeatedly breaking the rules, example serious fouls made repeatedly.
4)Delaying the start of the game.
5) Not moving back enough to the required distance., for corners and free kicks.
6) Entry or leaving the pitch without the referees permission.
7) A yellow card is also given for over celebrating, for example removing the jersey, and also for celebrating outside the pitch. As football grounds sometimes have running tracks for athelatics , going round the pitch, and thesr tracks get spoilt by the football stadiums.
There are seven main reasons to get a red card.
1 A serious foul play with the fear of harming a player, mainly with all the studs showing.
2) Violet conduct such as throwing a punch or a kick.
3) A player deliberately handling the ballto score a goal, or preventing an apponent from scoring a goal.
4) Even denying a player a chance to score a goal , by bringing down the player by the last man.,is either a freekick or even a penalty..
5) For spittiing at a player or the crowd.
6) For usingany abusive language or even making bad gesture,at anybody.
7) For receiving a second yellow card in thesame match is followed by a red card.. So the important thing is not to get a first yellow card for saying something or forthrowing the ball , and if a second yellow is shown a red followa automatically.
