-The sin bin period starts when play restarts.
-The referee includes any lost time.
-Where neutral assistants are appointed, they assist with timing.
what happens when a player is sin binned?
-A player in the sin bin cannot be substituted until the period has been expired, and not at all if all substitutes have been used. Referees should make sure they are familiar with the competition rules regarding substitutions for each fixture they officiate on.
-If the period has not expired at the end of the 1st half, it continues during the 2nd half (or extra time).
-Any player who is still in the sin bin at the end of the second period of Extra Time may take part in the taking of penalty Kicks.
