Pre game check is on ref. If they question it mid game that's a verbal and the player is sent off to correct the pad,if they change it again it becomes a card. Pretty simple rule to understand.
I never understood the shin guard issue. When I played I used the smallest kiddie foam ones I could find even in high school. . The bigger and more protective shin guards that apparently hurt people just got in the way for me. They made running feel unnatural and ball handling more prone to errors.
When I played, the refs checked bottom of boot and if you wore shinguards. What seal is he he referring to? I wore Adidas shinguards with the ankle part cut off and I set the plastic guard high up on my shin. In 20 yrs of playing offense and defense I've had my hip popped out, 2 concussions, pulled hamstring, 1 bee sting but never any shin injuries. Side note, the ref looks terrified
In the “pay to play” system it is very important that officials assert their powers in order to ensure that cash flow from obviously parents who think the right shinguards will actually make you a World Cup champion someday lmao Meanwhile real World Cup winners like Brazilians Ronaldo, Romario, Ronaldinho etc etc all played barefooted with no shinguards hahahaha
It’s called a nocsae seal. I remember my high school soccer coach made us all take our shin guards out before one practice and if they didn’t have the seal, we couldn’t practice or play in the next game until we got proper shinnies
Out of my 14 years of playing soccer, I’ve only ever seen my coach get a yellow card once & it was probably the funniest moment ever. It was a state finals and you can tell the ref was doing everything in her power to keep us from winning, (didn’t work) but seeing a 6 foot 7 Caribbean man get a yellow card from a 4 foot referee was honestly one of my highlights of my career. Great memories.
Crazy this is what's getting carded when everyone shouldve been sent off already for having their shirts untucked
Black man not used to being held accountable in life. not a suprise
When I was in school, we had guys putting 3×5 cards in their socks to look like they had shin guards
you can so tell that number four is the captain is so much of that sportsmanship aura around him
Was the yellow card actually necessary
what a dork
Don’t understand the small shin guards for real.
Messi wore shin guards the size of his legs and look at the way he was playing.
Like bro you’re not moving like that, the small shin guards still won’t help you.
Just borrow a teammates, stop complaining, and get in the game and play
haven't played sport in awhile are we taking it this serious now?

this is why America doesn't have top their talent players they just forget to enjoy the game, and worry about dumb stuff like shinguards
These ladies arguing over a soap opera game 😅
Wether hes about to shit his pants or not, ref stood on business
I’ve seen a guy cut up cardboard and use as shinguards 😂
Tf wrong with the shin guards?

Definitely a “soccer” moment lol
I have those shin guards and I show them to the ref and nothing happens to me. Some refs are just so buns.
who fucking cares
ref was ready to cry 😂

HAmericans are so goofy when they play footy 😂
🤦♂️ Karen Refs in the 🇺🇸
Refs protecting the kid. Coach throwing a fit dont really care about their health
This is definitely in the US 🤦🏾♂️
Shin guards in hand let's play!! The stamp 😂😂 these schools don't know wut they're doing 😂😂
What soft ass shit!! What else do you expect from soccer players!!!
What stamp are we talking about? I played for about 10 years never had a stamp always just tapped the shin guards and your good
It’s always the refs and the gun range safety officers
In Ireland, I got a yellow card for saying an opposition player didn't have shin guards on 😂
Unsporting???? And i thought baseball had bad umps
Zesty ass ref
Looks like the coach didn’t do his job properly. Too busy posting content
Gotta have the stamp on them. Understandable
WAH WAH. How are SHIN GUARDS going to give an unfair advantage? Soccer is a bit of a joke 😂
There is no cure for stupid 😢
That’s crazy that’s my homie CJ as coach lol
shin guards should be optional
It actually is the refs job to explain the rules when giving a penalty. Otherwise they can just play God.
One time I forgot to bring my shinguards and I kid u not I put cardboard😂
Slap the mic thru his jaw . 😂the soccer idiot . Infringing on football.
Same rules I had at states in 2010/11. Gotta have that stamp.

Refs are so entitled now a days cuz there is no punishment for them whether they do a good job or a shitty job
Ref does player check in b4 game starts. His fault
Themz the rulez
