ATLANTA \u2014 England defender Jarell Quansah was handed a two-match suspension on Thursday for his red card offense against Mexico in the World Cup<\/a> round of 16.<\/p>

That means Quansah will miss England\u2019s quarterfinal match against Norway in Miami Gardens on Saturday and also the semifinals if Thomas Tuchel\u2019s team advances.<\/p>\n

Quansah was sent off in the second half of England’s 3-2 victory against Mexico<\/a> on Sunday for a dangerous foul on Jesus Gallardo.<\/p>\n

FIFA confirmed the two-match suspension for serious foul play.<\/p>\n

FIFA\u2019s handling of red card punishments has come under intense scrutiny after its disciplinary committee suspended the one-game penalty of star United States striker Folarin Balogun after President Donald Trump intervened and contacted FIFA President Gianni Infantino<\/a> .<\/p>\n

Infantino defended the independence of FIFA\u2019s disciplinary committee and insisted the Balogun case was properly handled.<\/p>\n

Quansah\u2019s prolonged extension is the latest issue for Tuchel to contend with at right back.<\/p>

First choice Reece James has not played since England\u2019s second game of the tournament against Ghana due to a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n

His backup Tino Livramento was sent home<\/a> before England even kicked off its campaign after injuring his calf. Tuchel opted to call up a center back in Trevoh Chalobah as his replacement, rather than going for a specialist right back.<\/p>\n

It meant Quansah, who usually plays in central defense, has taken on the role of deputy to James.<\/p>\n

Tuchel faced questions before the World Cup for leaving out Real Madrid right back Trent Alexander-Arnold, who is widely regarded as one of the top players in Europe.<\/p>
