card is issued to a player when they have committed an offence that's somewhere between a red and yellow card. However, it's traditionally shown when players lose their rag with the referee.


The card was shown for the first time in a CONIFA World Football Cup match in London on Saturday.

CONIFA rules state that: "a player who receives a green card must leave the field of play immediately, but can be replaced if his team have not used all of their substitutes. A player receiving a green card is not excluded from his team's next match."



The first round of group games on Thursday failed to produce the card, but finally on Saturday it was shown: Raymond Mashamba, who was the referee officiating the Group C match between Padania and Tuvalu at Haringey's Coles Park, showed the new green card twice early in the second half; first he felt obliged to show it to a Tuvalu midfielder, and then to Padania's Stefano Baldan.
