ATLANTA (AP) — England defender Jarell Quansah was handed a two-match suspension on Thursday for his red card offense against Mexico in the World Cup round of 16.
That means Quansah will miss England’s World Cup quarterfinal match against Norway on Saturday and also the semifinals if Thomas Tuchel’s team advances.
Quansah was sent off in the second half of England’s 3-2 victory against Mexico on Sunday for a dangerous foul on Jesus Gallardo.
FIFA confirmed the two-match suspension for serious foul play.
