(From FIFA.COM) Revision of article 55 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code: Non-discrimination \"The new provision in par. 4 stipulates that if any player, official or spectator behaving in a discriminatory or contemptuous manner can be attributed to a certain team, three points will automatically be deducted from that team for the first offence. In the case of a second offence, six points will be deducted, and after a further offence, the team will be relegated. In the case of matches played without points being awarded, the team in question will be disqualified. \"Your attention is drawn to the fact that art. 55 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code will, in any event, apply for the entire duration of the 2006 FIFA World Cup
