Also in yellow-red and red cards there will be future barriers for coaches and other officials. "With a red card - like with players - the trainer or functionary is locked up to the decision by the responsible authority, without requiring a special procedure or a special notification", it was said by the DFB.

In the Bundesliga referees are allowed to show coaches cards since the beginning of the season. The first yellow card saw Steffen Baumgart, coach of the SC Paderborn, on the second matchday.
