England's Jarell Quansah gets 2-match ban for red card vs. Mexico
July 5, 2026; Mexico City, Mexico; England's Jarell Quansah looks dejected after being sent off after a VAR review. Mandatory Credit: Paul Childs-Reuters via Imagn Images FIFA extended England defender Jarell Quansah's red-card suspension to two matches on Thursday, meaning he will also miss the World Cup semifinal if his team advances that far.
Quansah was already ineligible for Saturday's quarterfinal clash with Norway in Miami Gardens, Fla., after drawing a red card in the 54th minute of England's 3-2 win against Mexico in the round of 16 on Sunday.
Quansah, 23, was sent off following a VAR review of his high tackle against Mexico defender Jesus Gallardo. Adding a second game to his suspension indicates FIFA thought his challenge rose to the level of serious foul play.
The absence of Quansah, who plays professionally for Germany's Bayer Leverkusen, leaves manager Thomas Tuchel with limited options at right-back because of injury concerns with Reece James and Djed Spence.
