Yellow card reasons are unofficial, and some of them may be incorrect. “???” means we are missing a reason for a card.

* at 45, 90, 95, 100 means nobody has established whether it fell before added time or in it. The source never recorded added time, so the minute is the end of the period rather than the moment itself.

Includes at least one match with a substitution involving the named official. Appearances are credited by starting position; cards are credited to the official who issued them, so the two can differ.

This match had a mid-match referee substitution.

This website’s default convention is for yellow card counts and per-match averages to exclude yellow cards which triggered a player’s expulsion for receiving a second caution in the same match. When this toggle is active, those values are adjusted to include such yellow cards.
