[QUOTE="Peoria Illini, post: 1400953, member: 593314"] I'm not sure that's ever been the case. That used to be a straight red card, and then the penalty kick, but FIFA has softened that in some instances to avoid what they call a triple penalty. (PK, losing a man for the rest of the match and then same guy suspended for the next game). A red card can be given if it's a blatant or egregious foul, but the Denmark player tried to make a play on the ball, even though he was coming from behind, so the ref chose to just give him a yellow card instead of what used to be an automatic red.
