The World Cup rivalry that inspired penalty cards | England vs Argentina |
![]() |
The use of red and yellow cards in football (soccer? Nah, football) was inspired by the 1966 World Cup match between England and Argentina. A match deemed the 'theft of the century' following a series of questionable calls, including the send off of Argentina captain, Antonio Rattin. They were also inspired by the red and yellow lights on a stoplight. So next time you're at a stoplight and it turns red, get out of your car and go home. The road has had enough of you and you have to leave. Hopefully this gives you time to think about your actions.
