Instead of the ridiculous yellow and red cards for fouls. They should have a penalty like in hockey where one team has to lose a player for two minutes thereby giving an advantage to one side. Would definitely liven up the game.

Among other reasons this is a stupid idea

The relative advantage gained from playing 11 v 10 for 2 minutes is minuscule compared to 5 v 4 in hockey.
