## Discipline

[edit]

Fair play points would have been used as a tiebreaker if the head-to-head and overall records of teams had been tied (and if a penalty shoot-out was not applicable as a tiebreaker). These were calculated based on yellow and red cards received by players and team officials in all group matches as follows:[2]

* yellow card = 1 point
* red card as a result of two yellow cards = 3 points
* direct red card = 3 points
* yellow card followed by direct red card = 4 points

Only one of the above deductions was applied to a player or team official in a single match.

Team  | Match 1  | Match 2  | Match 3  | Points

|
|
|
|

|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Germany | 2 |  |  |  | 2 |  |  |  | 1 |  |  |  | −5
Switzerland | 3 |  |  |  | 2 |  |  |  | 3 |  |  |  | −8
Scotland | 1 |  | 1 |  | 3 |  |  |  | 1 |  |  |  | −8
Hungary | 2 |  |  |  | 4[a] |  |  |  | 5 |  |  |  | −11

1. ^ Count includes a card from a technical staff member of the team
