16 yellow and 4 red cards in one game
The Dutch team is already on the way home while Portugal are into the quarter-finals for only the second time in their history where they will meet England. Referee Ivanov Valentin showed 16 yellow and 4 red cards during the Portugal’s 1:0 victory over Netherlands. Too bad that there wasn’t much football played.
