FIFA WWC: Why Lauren James Stamped On Alozie NEWS😅😀☝

 England Women manager Sarina Wiegman says Lauren James 'lost her emotions' to earn red card against Nigeria

Is Lauren James' tournament over?

Barring a successful appeal - which seems about as close to impossible as it could possibly be - Lauren James will automatically be suspended for England's quarter-final with either Jamaica or Colombia.

But beyond that, it could be worse news for the Chelsea forward. FIFA rules state: "Depending on the nature of the red card, additional sanctions can be added by FIFA if necessary."

James' dismissal was for violent conduct, which is normally met with the harshest punishments across all levels of the game.

A three-match ban normally follows in those cases - and if that happens here, James' tournament is over no matter how far England go.

"And I think, in a split-second, she just lost her emotions. And, of course, she does not want to hurt anyone. She is the sweetest person I know.
