Alessandro Del Piero

https://i0.wp.com/sokkaa.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Del-Piero.jpg?resize=640%2C415

Alessandro Del Piero had an amazing career that lasted more than two decades from 1991 to 2014, and culminated in being part of the world cup winning squad in Germany 2006. His quick pace and amazing skill were his clean tackles and cool head which meant that he didn’t pick up one single red card.
i really like this man, i will name my child after him.

It is noteworthy that most of those defenders on the list were mediocre.
I doubt if there was any great defender in history that did not get a red card.
Those last man defence scenarios would either get you a red card or a goal against your team, and any great defender would make the necessary foul.

3. Gary Lineker

https://i1.wp.com/sokkaa.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Gary-Lineker.jpg?resize=640%2C415

Apart from Walkers crisps adverts, Gary Lineker almost helped the lions clinch a second world cup back in Italia ’90. Playing alongside Paul Gascoigne he must have had his hands full with keeping his team mates in line as well as keeping focused on the game.
Gary Lineker is the best of the lot. He was never causioned (yellow carded) in his playing career.

4. Ryan Giggs

https://i1.wp.com/sokkaa.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/RyanGiggs.jpg?resize=640%2C415

Many people know that this Welshman was a terrific sportsman and brilliantly talented. He retired in 2014 after spending the whole career at Manchester United he is now assistant manager at Old Trafford.

Ryan Giggs participated in every Premier League campaign from 1990 to 2014, and is one of the most successful players in the English Premier League era. And even though his looks were a bit tough and nervy, but Ryan Giggs is another player who hasn’t received a Red Card in his entire career.
Please remove Ryan Giggs from the list.

Ryan Giggs has only been sent off once in his career. This was in a match while playing for Wales. He has never been sent off for his club Manchester United.

Football is known as a game of passion, desire, friendship and fair play. However, there are some players who play it differently and gets punished or banned for shoving the opposition players.

However, some saint Players exists as well who always play within the rules and make history. Sadly for some, Lionel Messi is not in the list as the Argentine Footballer has received 1 Red Card during his playing time.

So, here are our 8 Players who never received a red card in their entire footballing career.

Don't be sentimental here Ronaldo too is not exception in fact he received more than Messi. Why is that Messi is the one you remembered? No offense just saying I stand to be corrected.
