According to reports in England, the blue card is set to be introduced in some FA Cup and Women's FA Cup matches to see how effective it is and what future problems it might cause in order to improve the sanction it carries.
According to 'The Telegraph', the International Football Association Board will announce on Friday that the blue card will be used to "remove some players for 10 minutes if they commit a cynical foul or show dissent towards a referee".
Players can be sent off if they receive two blue cards, just as yellow cards work. Even if they also receive a yellow and a blue card they can be dismissed from the match.
This new refereeing measure is part of a revolutionary project to add new measures to football, which will have sin-bin trials in upcoming football matches.
