Yellow and red cards were first introduced in the game by British referee Ken Aston and its first major use was in the 1970 World Cup: he actually had the idea whilst sitting in his car waiting at traffic lights. The system of cautioning and sending-off existed prior to 1970; however, the use of coloured cards allows referees to convey their intentions directly regardless of the language spoken. The cards were only made mandatory at all levels in 1992.

Goerge Hagi, probably. He was insane;y good, and he played for huge clubs like Real Madrid, Barcelona Galatasary. Also he had a wicked freekick.

Never an own goal but has earned two redcards. The one I remember most recently was against Real Zaragoza in a Copa del Rey game this year. (either February or March)\n\nIt was an undeserved straight redcard and he was as shocked as the fans, the players, the commentators and everyone else. The referee in that game had made some very suspicious calls against Barca (and for Zaragoza) that got people talking.

I don´t know,\n\nI have a hunch it was Ronaldo in 1994 in the United States, even though he didn´t play one single match.  He was 17 at the time.  But Pelé could also be the record holder, because in 1958, in Brazil´s first championhip run, he was a starter and won the world cup in Sweden against the hosts, when he wa also 17.

Yes, that was a VERY unsportsmanlike action and he should have gotten a red card for it.  His suspension from Portugal's next game would be in order.

Francis Lee of Manchester City. He played for an entire season and only missed one penalty.\nAn anecdote :\nHe was on a pre-season tour of Scandanavia with City. In a friendly game, Lee was awarded a penalty. He was jovially approached by the Scandanavian goalie who asked to be given a chance by being told which side Fran was going to put it.\n'The left,' he replied generously, before smashing the ball to the right.\nWhen questioned on it by the goalie after the game, he replied,\n'That's why Frannie Lee never misses a penalty...'

I totally agree with you. He didn't do a proper job as a referee. The first red card needed to be called but the other two? I don't know. A yellow maybe but not a red.
