LAW & SCORE: Last week I was watching a game where a team (for here GREEN Team) was winning 6 to 0. At middle of the second half time a Green Team forward run with the ball toward the RED team area. A defender, came from behing and push him.

Quickly referee called and show the yellow card. Red coach became upset and started object Ref determination. After game Red Coach told the Ref: Why show yellow card, when score is 6 to 0?.

This is not the firts time that I listen something like it. Many coach, and also many referees, are thinking that when a Team has big difference over another, the Law of the Game can be applied in different manner, forgiving fouls and misconduct that can be called in another situation.

I think that is an error. There are nothing in the Law that permit be different when result is different. The law is the law when the score is 0 to 0, 2 to 2, 1 to 0 or 6 to 0, and the violence conduct, misconduct, careless or reckless is same independently results.
