## Discipline

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:
* 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 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 | 5 | −11 |
* ↑ Count includes a card from a technical staff member of the team
