Four of Thomas Tuchel's England players are walking a disciplinary tightrope following their last-16 victory over Mexico, with bookings potentially ruling them out of a semi-final. Marc Guehi, Nico O'Reilly, and Declan Rice were all booked in the 3-2 win, while Jude Bellingham is also at risk after his booking against DR Congo in the last 32. Jordan Henderson was cautioned late on 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. The article explains the World Cup's yellow card rules: cards from the group stage were wiped before the last 32, but players who pick up two yellow cards across the last 32, last 16, and quarter-finals serve an automatic one-match ban. Yellow cards are reset again after the quarter-finals, so a player would only miss the final through suspension if sent off in the semi-final. Other players at risk include France's Michael Olise, Bradley Barcola, and Manu Kone, Spain's Ferran Torres, Morocco's Achraf Hakimi, and Argentina's Gonzalo Montiel.
