England's Quansah handed two-game ban
Miami: England defender Jarell Quansah will miss Saturday's FIFA World Cup 2026 quarter-final against Norway, and the last four should the Three Lions progress, after being handed a two-game ban by FIFA.
Quansah was shown a straight red card against Mexico in the last 16, but only after a VAR review.

The absence of the Bayer Leverkusen man adds an extra headache to Thomas Tuchel's selection at right-back.

Chelsea captain Reece James has missed the last three games after picking up a hamstring injury and is the only natural right-back in Tuchel's squad.

Djed Spence and Quansah have deputised at right-back, but both have struggled.

James remains a doubt for the last eight after missing training on Wednesday.

Ezri Konsa was forced to move to right-back for the final half hour of England's dogged display to win in Mexico and could start there with John Stones coming into central defence.
