Another dumb yellow card for taking shirt off

Aboubakar of Cameroon. I understand the euphoria of scoring but why take your shirt off when you know the consequence is a yellow and in this instance a second yellow and team down to 10. Just wish they'd change the law, why is it "unsporting behaviour"?

Wasn't the rule first introduced to appease shirt sponsors?

He knew they were out, I am sure.
 
It was his great moment. They knew they weren't going through so he lost himself in the euphoria. Completely understandable. Its not as though he's going to miss the next match in this Tournament.
 
Time wasting was the main reason as there was a growing trend of throwing the shirt sometimes even into the crowd, making it take far too long to get the game started again, second reason was FIFA worried about political messages being displayed underneath.
