Red Card Warning For Deliberate Coughing In Football
Referee Anthony Taylor shows a red card to Chelsea’s Croatian midfielder Mateo Kovacic during the English FA Cup final football match between Arsenal and Chelsea at Wembley Stadium in London, on August 1, 2020. Footballers can be sent off if referees judge they have coughed deliberately at opponents or match officials in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, say the sport’s rule-makers and England’s Football Association.
IFAB classified deliberate coughing as similar to “using offensive, insulting or abusive language and/or gestures”.
