β’ OFF-FIELD TREATMENT (ONE MINUTE): Players who are treated by the physio must stay off the field for 60 seconds. There are some exceptions, including for goalkeepers, injuries and if the opponent is booked or sent off.
β’ PLAYERS COVERING THEIR MOUTHS: Any player covering their mouth in a confrontational situation with an opponent may be sanctioned with a RED CARD. π€

β’ SECOND YELLOWS CAN BE REVIEWED: Players sent off for two cautions can have the second booking checked, but there will be no reviews for potential second yellows. βοΈ
