Quansah Hit With Two-Game FIFA Ban

Jarell Quansah, England and FIFA
Thursday before England face Norway

England defender Jarell Quansah has been banned for two World Cup matches after his red card against Mexico. FIFA classified the high challenge on Jesus Gallardo as serious foul play, ruling him out against Norway and a possible semi-final.

The FA cannot appeal under tournament rules, though it strongly questioned the VAR process and slow-motion sequencing. The sanction adds pressure on Thomas Tuchel’s right-back options, especially with Reece James still returning from injury concerns.
