The World Cup, which will take place from June 11 to July 19, will feature a new innovation regarding yellow cards. According to BBC Sport, FIFA plans to introduce a new stage in which the accumulated yellow cards of football players will be canceled. It is indicated that at the upcoming tournament, players' yellow cards will expire in two stages: first at the end of the group stage, and then after the quarterfinals.

This innovation is introduced due to the fact that for the first time at this World Cup there will be an additional round - the 1/16 finals, and in order to avoid the risk of disqualification, there will be two stages of cancellation of warnings. It was also previously reported that FIFA is preparing changes for referees at the 2026 World Cup. FIFA is preparing prize money for the 2026 World Cup that is disproportionate to previous ones.
