New rule changes have come into effect from the 1st January 2014 which includes a black card for cynical fouls. A black card will be issued for the following 5 offences, which will result with the player being sent off and replaced with a substitute player.

If a player is on a yellow card and then issued with a black card, this will be the equivalent of a red card and the player is sent off and not replaced.
