Hello, teachers!!
Two-footed tackle ensures giving away a foul and a booking.
----->
What does "a booking" mean in the above sentence?
Thank you in advance. |

Hello Learner -
It sounds like 'football' (soccer/footbol) terminology.
'a booking' --> to have your name written in the referees' 'book' for an infraction of the rules.
Please provide a 'quote/reference' if you don't think my 'guess' is correct.
