A player is likely to receive a second yellow card for aggressive tackling after receiving a warning because this reflects a clear violation of the game’s conduct and safety regulations. When a player has already been cautioned with a yellow card for a previous infraction, any subsequent serious misconduct, such as a reckless tackle, can result in another yellow card. Accumulating two yellow cards in a match leads to a red card, which results in the player being sent off the field.

In comparison, an accidental handball typically does not warrant a yellow card unless it is deemed to be done with intent or is part of a pattern of misconduct. Scoring a goal is a positive action and does not incur disciplinary measures. Arguing with the coach, while potentially unprofessional, may not directly affect the gameplay in a way that would lead to a yellow card as it is not uncommon for players to express dissent toward their coaching staff outside the referees' jurisdiction.
