Four England players are at risk of missing a potential World Cup semi-final because of the tournament's yellow-card rules.

Midfielders Declan Rice and Jude Bellingham would miss the World Cup semi-final if they are booked and England beat Norway England delivered one of their all-time great World Cup performances in their last-16 victory over Mexico, but four of Thomas Tuchel's players are walking a disciplinary tightrope following the dramatic win at the Azteca Stadium. Marc Guehi, Nico O'Reilly and Declan Rice were all booked in the 3-2 triumph, leaving them in danger of missing a potential semi-final in Atlanta on Wednesday, 15 July. Jude Bellingham is also at risk of suspension after his booking against DR Congo in the last 32, while Jordan Henderson was cautioned late on against Mexico - but is expected to have surgery on a wrist injury suffered celebrating the win, which may rule him out of the rest of the tournament. So what are the rules? And which other players are at risk of being suspended for the semi-finals? Yellow cards picked up during the group stage were wiped before the last 32, so Rice's caution in the goalless draw with Ghana is irrelevant in the knockout stages. The same would have applied to Jarell Quansah, who was cautioned in England's subsequent group game against Panama, but the Bayer Leverkusen defender will miss his team's quarter-final through suspension after being sent off against Mexico - pending a possible England appeal. Players who pick up two yellow cards across the last 32, last 16 and quarter-finals serve an automatic one-match ban.
