FA considering appeal after Quansah red card

The Football Association is considering an appeal against England defender Jarell Quansah's red card during the World Cup victory over Mexico. Quansah was sent off in the 54th minute of the 3-2 win for a high challenge on Jesus Gallardo. The FA is weighing its options after US striker Folarin Balogun had a red card overturned following intervention from US President Donald Trump, leading to widespread criticism from figures including England boss Thomas Tuchel. The right-back position has been a concern for Tuchel, with multiple players featuring there during the World Cup. Reece James, the first-choice right-back, has been unavailable since injuring a hamstring in the second group match against Ghana. Quansah, who sustained an injury against Panama but was fit to start against Mexico, now faces potential suspension as England prepares for a quarter-final against Norway in Miami.
