Okay, so, I was messing around with this crossword puzzle today, right? And I came across this clue: “soccer warning, 2 words.” Now, I’m not a huge sports guy, but I know a little bit about soccer. So I start thinking, what kind of warnings do they give in soccer?
I’m racking my brain, going through all the possibilities. I remembered there are these things called “cards” that referees use. Initially, I considered words like “foul play” or “time out,” but they didn’t quite fit. I got stuck there for a bit, feeling a bit dumb. It’s just two words, how hard could it be?
Then, I took a step back and went online to see if I could get some hints. I typed the clue into a couple of those crossword solver sites. And boom, a bunch of potential answers popped up. Most of them pointed towards one specific answer.
So, I narrowed it down, eliminating all the answers that were too long or didn’t make sense in the context of a warning. And after all that, it finally hit me! The answer is simply “YELLOW CARD.” That’s it! That’s the two-word warning they give in soccer.
