Quansah Banned for Two Games After Red Card vs Mexico The FIFA disciplinary committee has dealt a significant blow to the beautiful game by banning England defender Jarell Quansah for two World Cup matches after he was given a straight red card in their last 16 win over Mexico.
The decision, which some may see as harsh, is actually a much needed crackdown on serious foul play.
The incident that led to Quansah's ban occurred in the 54th minute of the match when he made contact with Mexico's Jesus Gallardo's shin using his studs during a tackle.
