Calverese on the blue card: “To avoid controversy, we need objective criteria”

Giampaolo Calvarese, The former Serie A referee exclusively spoke to TVPlay about the introduction of the blue card, which carries a temporary exclusion: “The blue card is a significant and non-technological innovation, such as VAR or semi-automatic offside. We’ll decide on March 2nd whether or not to experiment with this change, but we’ll start with minor tournaments as this change could have a significant impact. This will affect those fouls that interrupt the action and are considered unsportsmanlike, as well as protests. We want to avoid all those groups of players walking around the referee in protest when in fact only the captain should be walking.”
