Infantino: "No to blue cards"

FIFA President Gianni Infantino said that FIFA completely opposes the International Football Association Board’s proposal to use so-called “blue cards” in matches of the popular game.
Infantino indicated that he was not aware of the idea proposed by the International Federation Council, which is responsible for enacting the laws of the popular game, before it received widespread public attention.
The proposal to use blue cards, which gives the referee the power to temporarily expel violating players for 10 minutes, was discussed during the annual meeting of FIFA and the International Federation of Association Football Associations.
"Blue cards will not be used at the highest level. This is not an issue for us," Infantino said.
