red card (sports)
Direct award of a loss. All 5 red cards must be given to the players on the field to result in a straight loss, it would be a different story if the manager was sent off with a red card. This is because there is a rule that states that when either team has fewer than 7 players, the game cannot continue and the team is penalized with a 0-3 loss. This is a bit like a basketball game where one team is unable to play and is penalized with a straight 0-20 loss.
The rules of red card in soccer are as follows: When a player commits a serious foul, acts aggressively, or spits at an opponent or other person, or insults any player on the field with offensive, insulting, or spiteful words or gestures, he or she will be penalized by the referee with a red card.
And if five players from one team are shown a red card before the end of that match, the match is declared over immediately and the team that received five red cards is sentenced to a straight 0-3 loss.
The use of red cards on the pitch can be categorized into two situations, one is directly due to the circumstances are too bad, the referee can not stand it, will directly use the red card to send the player out of the field, and the penalized team can not be replaced by a new player to replace it to continue the game, that is, automatic attrition. The second scenario is that a player receives two yellow cards for foul play or behavior in the same match, then two yellow cards are equivalent to one red card and the player will be sent off by the referee.
In addition to the impact of the match, the player who receives the red card will be suspended from the match, the rules of suspension are as follows: Firstly, a league suspension, which is generally only valid for the next match in the league, and if that match happens to be the last match of the season, the suspension will automatically be extended to the first match of the next season; in some cases, league suspensions are also valid for national cup matches. Secondly, a national cup suspension is generally only valid for the next game of the cup, and if a red card is received in the final of the national cup, the constraints of the next suspension are automatically lifted; in some national cups, the red card is also valid for league matches, i.e. the player is suspended for the next league match.
