A total of 19 players are carrying a yellow card into the World Cup quarter-finals.

This means that any of these players will be suspended for a potential semi-final if they are booked again in the upcoming round.

Among the notable players on a yellow card are Morocco captain Achraf Hakimi, France and Bayern Munich forward Michael Olise, Norway and RB Leipzig winger Antonio Nusa and England midfielder Jude Bellingham.

Yellow cards picked up before the knockout stages were wiped before the round of 32, and bookings will be reset again after the quarter-finals.

England's Jarell Quansah was the only player sent off in the round of 16, receiving his marching orders against Mexico, and the Bayer Leverkusen defender will therefore miss his side's quarter-final against Norway.
