Nice touch?The cards won't be handed out during matches, as that would alter the rules of the game. Instead, the referee and assistants will decide who to reward after matches—whether it's players on the pitch or bench, or even coaches.
"It's up to the referee," Abodi said. "But they have to be extraordinary acts, not ordinary ones."
At the end of the season, players or coaches with the most green cards will be rewarded.
"It's a symbolic award," Abodi said, explaining that the initiative is in the final phase of development. "It could be something very simple. The important thing is to recognize it when a professional does something exemplary."
One clear way to gain a green card would be to admit to a hand ball, or give away a corner kick for an incorrect call.
