When is a player shown a yellow card in soccer?

For scoring a goal
For making a substitution
For a disciplinary action
For conducting a fair play

The correct answer is: For a disciplinary action

A player is shown a yellow card in soccer for a disciplinary action. This usually occurs when a player commits a cautionable offense, such as unsporting behavior, dissent, delaying the restart of play, or committing a tactical foul. The yellow card serves as a warning to the player and their team that further misconduct may result in a red card, leading to the player being sent off the field. It is essential for players to adhere to the rules of the game and show good sportsmanship to avoid receiving a yellow card and potentially putting their team at a disadvantage.
