IFAB directors are not convinced that the blue card test is necessary, according to The Telegraph. The English media specifies the existence of concerns about the management of guards who could be temporarily expelled.
Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp admitted not being seduced by the idea. If the “blue card” project is likely to no longer see the light of day, the IFAB would consider creating a rule where, apart from the team captain, no one can approach the officials. In his eyes ‘it’s no longer football’, says UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin.
