1st caution was for retaliation after a foul by a player on the opposing team (throwing arm back and catching the other player in the face with an elbow). At the time of this caution there was some arguing about the caution, his teammates got him to walk away.
The second caution was due to the player taking the ball to the corner for a corner kick and ignoring my whistle and verbal instruction that the restart was ruled a goal kick. He deliberately walked to the corner with his back to me and did not acknowledge me until he was ready to take the kick, only then did he acknowledge my indication that the call was a goal kick. At that point he kicked the ball backwards off of the field and threw his hands up saying something that I could not understand possibly because it may have been in Spanish, I was not close enough to hear exactly what was said, his actions clearly communicated that he did not agree with the call. The deciding factor for the yellow card for dissent was that this interaction took 10 to 15 seconds and included multiple forms of dissent. |
