PARIS: Protesting referees' decisions will be punished more severely during the opening Euro 2008 qualifiers this weekend after UEFA on Friday ordered officials to clamp down this season.

Raising a hand to request a card be shown or even running towards a referee will be more harshly dealt with than before, UEFA said, adding crowding round a referee or even making a gesture in protest would be sanctioned.

"UEFA has asked referees to punish player protests," European football's governing body said in a statement at the time of the annual meeting of the referee's commission.

In the case of a crowd of players making protests, UEFA said at least one of the players would be booked, and usually the instigator.

"UEFA has decided to end players' protests and the harassment of referees," the statement added, saying the directives would take immediate effect and be in force for Saturday's international matches.
