The Romanian Football Federation (FRF) has launched a new initiative in youth football: the black card. This card is used to penalize misconduct from the stands, specifically unsportsmanlike behavior from spectators or parents during children's and juniors' football matches. The referee can show the black card to suspend a match indefinitely if inappropriate behavior persists after warnings and a 10-minute suspension. The FRF is the first football association worldwide to adopt such a card exclusively for punishing inappropriate behavior of spectators.
