Vicenza's Cristian Galano is the lucky recipient of football's first ever green card.
Officials speaking for the Italian second tier announced the scheme at the beginning of the season and said that the player with the most green cards at the end of the season will receive a reward.
And on Tuesday in north-western Italy, football witnessed a revolutionary moment as referee Marco Mainardi decided Galano deserved the honour of making history.
In the 53rd minute, Vicenza were awarded a corner, but forward Galano admitted that no Virtus Entella defender had touched the ball.
