Yellow Card amnesty

I thought I have heard it being said that there is a yellow card amnesty after the quarter finals. I'm sure they said it on ITV last night and have done previously. Indeed from UEFA's webpage it looks like this is the case

So if this is the case how come the likes of Hummels and Ramsay are banned from the semi-finals because of yellow cards?

I think it means yellow cards don't carry over after the quarter-finals... so if you've got one yellow card now it gets wiped. If you picked up two bookings before QFs were over you still get banned though.

It's to stop people picking up a booking in the semi and missing the final. The only way you can miss the final through suspension is if you get sent off.
