List of FIFA World Cup red cards

This is a list of all red cards shown during FIFA World Cups; that is, the occasions when a player has been expelled from the game in a football World Cup Finals match (not including qualifying matches). As FIFA is the governing body of football, official red cards are only noted when FIFA recognised that a player was expelled or sent off in a match.

Notable World Cup red cards

  • Plácido Galindo was the first player to be sent off in a World Cup match, playing for Peru on 14 July 1930 against Romania.
  • Uruguay's José Batista received the quickest red card when he was sent off in the first minute in 1986 for bringing down Gordon Strachan in a game against Scotland.
  • Five players have been sent off in the final. Argentina's Pedro Monzón was the first in 1990 and was quickly followed by team mate Gustavo Dezotti in the same match. Marcel Desailly, playing for France in 1998, was the first player to be sent off from the winning team in the final.
  • Argentina's Claudio Caniggia became the first person to be sent off from the substitute's bench, after he swore at the referee in a game against Sweden in 2002.
  • The most players sent off on one day occurred on June 18, 1998 when five players received a red card across two different first round matches.
  • Rigobert Song became the first player to receive two red cards - one in 1994 and one in 1998. Zinedine Zidane replicated this in 1998 and 2006.
  • Three South American countries lead the list of most red cards for a national team with Brazil having 11 players dismissed. Argentina have had 10 players sent off, and Uruguay 9 players.
  • The single World Cup match with the greatest number of red cards was the Netherlands-Portugal game in the second round of the 2006 World Cup, this match also known as "The battle of Nüremberg". 4 players, 2 from each team, were sent off; overall referee Valentin Ivanov dished out 16 yellow cards and 4 red cards, the greatest number of players booked and sent off in any one match.
  • The first red card was introduced in 1970, but nobody was sent off. Carlos Caszely of Chile became the first person to receive a red card, after his second yellow card against West Germany in 1974, for bringing down Berti Vogts.[citation needed] Chile lost 1-0.

Notes

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 From substitutes' bench
  2. ↑ Josip Šimunić erroneously received three yellow cards (61', 90', 93+') from referee Graham Poll in the Croatia match against Australia before being sent off, but FIFA changed the report to include only 61' and 93' bookings.
