Yellow card leaderboard

WC26 squad players ranked by club-season cards-risk score. The formula leans on three signals from each player's 2025-26 club minutes: yellow cards per 90 (the direct signal), fouls per 90 (the referee-discretion threshold), and tackles per 90 (volume creates exposure). Higher score = more card-prone. Only players with 450+ club-season minutes are scored.
