That's a definite maybe. If a player gets two yellow cards in a single match, the Laws of the Game mandate a red card immediately following the second yellow card, said send off administered for "persistent infringement on the Laws of the Game." But you knew that. What is at issue is adjudication of the red card. Here's how it usually works. In an instance where an official sends a player off, the soccer organization under whose aegis the match was held usually requires the ref to submit a "24-hour report" of the incident. (And within 24 hours, hence the "name" of the document.) There is usually some kind of Protest and Disciplinary (PaD) Committee or the like to review the issue and decide what, if any, further action should be taken. (The player has already had to sit out the rest of the game in which his conduct got him sent off. And his team had to play (a man) short, too. Double whammy.) PaD committee holds a "hearing" within a short time after the incident. In leagues, the committee may have to review a whole bunch of 24-hour reports from the previous weekend's games and make decisions. (At a weekend long tournament, officials review the report right after it is written, and that means the ref will have to write it right after the game. That way it can be heard immediately and the rest of that player's weekend mapped out for him.) There is a "panel" of, say, three certified referees to read the 24-hour report and listen to any presentation by the coach of the red-carded player's team tell the "offender's" side of the issue. Then a decision is made. Some players are allowed to return to play immediately. Perhaps the committee has found that the loss of the privilege of playing for the rest of the game from which he was tossed is sufficient punishment for the offense(s). If the panel decides to have the player sit out another game or two, that's what happens. League rules apply and are hard to overcome. The league reports to state organizations and to national organizations and then in some way to FIFA, but players won't be "taking their case up the chain" in an instance like this. The smart coach and the smart player know that what has happened cannot be changed. An appeal might be made in the PaD meeting. It might begin with an admission of guilt, move on to a sincere apology and close with a request that the committee consider not levying any further sanctions on the player. (The idea here being that the punishment of having had him sit out the rest of the game he was sent off from is sufficient.) But it's the coach's call. If any of this suggests to you that this post was written by someone who has been down all roads in this area, then you would be correct in any assumptions based on that line of thought. Good luck. And play beautiful.

What color is the card when a rule has been broken in soccer?

Depends on the severity of the rule broken or action of the player. Yellow cards are given for slightly dirty tackles or something not too violent. Red cards are given for very dirty tackles or telling off the ref, fighting, or upon receiving two yellow cards. Not the best answer but gives you an idea. (yellow is less severe then red. Red leads to the player being ejected from the game.)

What does it mean when you get two yellow cards during a soccer game?

If a player is shown 2 yellow cards in one match, they have been cautioned twice. Receiving two cautions means that player is automatically sent off and will also be shown a red card. Their team will not be allowed to replace them and will have to play short a player. The player will most likely also be ineligible to play in their next match.
