    • 2023 March 23, Phil McNulty, “Italy 1-2 England”, in BBC Sport[1]:
      Shaw's dismissal did little to help England's cause late on. The defender picked up the first of his two yellow cards in the 78th minute for time-wasting when preparing to take a throw-in and the second came just two minutes later for a mis-timed challenged on Retegui.
