KBVB announce new rules

The Central Commission of Referees of the KBVB has announced new rules that will be used by the Belgian referees from this season on. They will especially penalize protest against their decisions.


If a player protests against a decision with all kinds of gestures, or he comes towards the referee to protest, then he will receive a yellow card. A player who shows publicity or a slogan underneath his shirt, will also receive a yellow card. And people who hide their faces behind a mask or anything like that will also receive the same penalty.
