Four England players could miss a World Cup semi-final if they pick up a booking against Sweden.
Players at the 2018 World Cup will be banned for one match if they pick up two yellow cards before the semi-final stage.
That means a booking for Jordan Henderson, Kyle Walker, Jesse Lingard or Ruben Loftus-Cheek against Sweden will see them miss a potential semi-final, should England win that match.
When are bookings wiped?
Bookings will be scrubbed from players' records after the quarter-final stage, meaning no one will go into the semi-final fearing a yellow could end their hopes of appearing in a World Cup final.
A player would only miss the final through suspension if they were sent off in a last-four tie.
Who else could be suspended?
Brazil pair Neymar and Philippe Coutinho, Belgium's Kevin De Bruyne and France's Paul Pogba are other high-profile players one mis-timed tackle away from missing a vital match for their sides.
