I Paper Sport – Sin Bins set to be trialled at FA Cup next season
The back page of the i newspaper leads with the news that a ‘Blue card’ will be trialled in the FA Cup next season – essentially a sin bin. It has been met with wide backlash.
Blue cards will be shown to players for dissent and tactical fouls – it will mean the player will have to spend 10 minutes in the technical area.
Elsewhere, a large image of the England rugby team makes the back page as the paper says England has announced the same starting squad ahead of their next Six Nations match.
England’s Nations League matches, Jesse Lingard’s move to Seoul, and Thiago Silva’s latest injury also make the back page.
An opinion piece on the Ivory Coast – ahead of the Afcon final – is also featured.
