FA won't punish Beckham over yellow card

David Beckham won't be punished by England's soccer federation for intentionally getting a yellow card in a World Cup qualifying game.

The Football Association said Thursday there was "insufficient evidence" to pursue a case against Beckham, who acknowledged he deliberately fouled defender Ben Thatcher in England's 2-0 win over Wales on Oct. 9 at Old Trafford.

Beckham, who already was carrying a yellow card from a previous game, said he did it in order to get another yellow that would automatically suspend him for England's game four days later at Azerbaijan.

Beckham had broken a rib moments before in a collision with Thatcher and realized he would have to sit out the next match anyway.

Beckham was severely criticized by FIFA president Sepp Blatter and others for violating the spirit of fair play. Blatter asked the FA to take action.

Beckham issued a formal apology.

"Following due process under the FA's disciplinary regulations, the FA's compliance department has reviewed all available information and concluded that there is insufficient evidence to pursue a disciplinary charge," the FA said in a statement.

"However, David Beckham has been reminded of his responsibilities and the rules of conduct he is expected to adhere to both as an England player and as captain. The FA now considers this matter to be closed."
