World Cup quarterfinals feature several players at risk of yellow card suspensions
Summary

As the 2026 men's World Cup quarterfinals approach, teams are concerned about key players facing possible one-game suspensions due to yellow card accumulation. Players from Morocco, France, Spain, Belgium, Norway, England, Argentina, and Switzerland are on yellow cards. If they receive another yellow card in the quarterfinals, they will miss the semifinals if their teams progress. Yellow cards will reset after this round, meaning players who avoid further bookings will be eligible for the semifinals and final without risk of suspension.
