Should he be given a red card to be send off the field??



During a soccer match, if the referee deemed the player as having played a foul he has no hesitation to bring out the red card to send him off the field.


So my question is, is it too harsh a punishment to send him off the field without having to listen to his explanations why he played it that way? Or from the player's point of view, he's not playing it wrongly... neither did he made a foul??


Is a red card too harsh a punishment for him? What if he slog his life and was practising everyday, showed his passion etc almost every other day. But a GRAVE mistake he made jus 10mins after the whistle blew in a MAJOR IMPORTANT match, he was sent off the field.... Is it being fair to him?


Okay, if you were to hear him explain n his reasoning was becos he wasnt feeling well and many other unfortunate things that happened around that made him unable to judge how he had behaved...He kept apologising and seems to be remorseful. HE dun seemed to do it intentionally.... But you wouldn't want to see another injury on the field.... What will you do??


If you know his reasoning and yet flash out the red card to send him off... are you being too cruel/unreasonable? Or you stand to ur principle and be firm, send him off the field and you'll never see him in the match again.... or perhaps be able to see him sitting on the bench with his sad eyes staring at the match without him....


Or would you give him a yellow card as warning? Or is it why a yellow card is there in the 1st place? Me? I dunno....perhaps give him a yellow card?
