- Jarell Quansah has been handed a two-game ban by Fifa following his red card during England's last-16 victory over Mexico.
- The ban stems from a reckless sliding challenge on Mexico's Jesus Gallardo, which resulted in Quansah's studs making contact with Gallardo's shin.
- England had initially considered appealing the decision after Fifa suspended US striker Folarin Balogun’s one-match ban earlier this week following lobbying from US president Donald Trump.
- Fifa ultimately doubled Quansah's suspension from one to two matches, citing a breach of Article 14 of their code of conduct for serious foul play.
- This ruling means the Bayer Leverkusen defender will be unavailable for England's quarter-final against Norway and any potential semi-final, with his only chance of returning being for the final.
