The 2026 FIFA World Cup will introduce changes to yellow card rules to suit its expanded 48-team format. With more matches and an added knockout round, FIFA plans two reset points, after the group stage and quarter-finals, to limit suspensions from accumulated bookings. The change aims to reduce players missing key matches while maintaining disciplinary fairness across a longer tournament structure.
