Here is a look at every player that got sent off at the recently concluded FIFA 2026 World Cup. The list contains every red card for players on the field (doesn’t include bench/coaching staff dismissals during the tournament, and doesn’t include players who got yellow carded in two different matches and were therefore suspended for the subsequent game)
Mexico 2-0 South Africa (Group A)
Red Cards to Sphephelo Sithole and Themba Zwane (South Africa)
Red Card to Cesar Montes (Mexico)
The opening match of the 2026 World Cup between co-hosts Mexico and South Africa had THREE red cards. The twin sending offs ended SA’s chances in the game after Julian Quinones had scored the opening goal of the 2026 World Cup.
Switzerland 4-1 Bosnia Herzegovina (Group B)
Red Card to Tarik Muharemovic (Bosnia)
Canada 6-0 Qatar (Group B)
