Milan’s 3-0 win over Lecce brought Serie A’s fifth round to a close, leaving the championship to pause for its first extended international break. When the league resumes for matchday six, the disciplinary picture will be shaped by a long list of cautions but no dismissals.
No player was shown a red card during the round, while no coach received a booking from the referee. The sanctions were therefore limited to yellow cards, spread across 16 clubs.
Bookings from Serie A matchday five
| Club | Booked players |
|---|---|
| Atalanta | Kristensen, Kessié |
| Como | Diao, Couto |
| Fiorentina | Mastantuono, Ranieri, De Gea |
| Frosinone | Raimondo, Kvernadze, Bracaglia |

Venezia collected the highest number of cautions, with six players entering the referee’s notebook. Monza followed with four, while Fiorentina, Frosinone, Genoa, Inter, Parma, Roma and Torino each had three players booked.
The round ended without the disciplinary incidents that can alter a coach’s plans immediately. With no suspensions arising from red cards and no touchline sanctions for managers, clubs will now turn towards the international break before Serie A resumes its season-long contest in the sixth round.
