Almost one in three matches sees a red card: The world’s toughest leagues 🔥 | OneFootball

In the Champions League, the red card was shown three times yesterday. Only three times? That would probably just elicit a tired smile in other parts of the world. 

Because the portal 'CIES' has listed the toughest leagues where the most red cards are given. On each matchday, there is almost a red card in every second or third game. 

While the Portuguese second division, Croatia, Paraguay, Mexico, Ecuador, and Saudi Arabia have 0.35 red cards per game or fewer, Israel and Chile share third place. 

The Peruvian league (0.38 red cards per game) lands just ahead in second place. The most red cards, however, are given in Colombia (0.40 red cards per game). 

This makes Dimayor the toughest league in the world. Whether the league officials are happy about this title is rather doubtful.
