News 18  

Lauren James has been in the eye of a storm after she was sent off in England’s knockout victory over Nigeria in the Women’s FIFA World Cup 2023. Bronze, quoted by The Mirror, said, “She is very upset – there is no one going to be more upset than Lauren James.” England coach Sarina Wiegman spoke to Lauren after the game. She did not want to hurt anybody, she is the sweetest person that I know.” Lauren James will automatically miss her next game due to the one match-ban for a red-card offence. When asked about the possibility of a three-match ban, Sarina Wiegman said, “Let’s not make assumptions, about things that are yet to be decided.” Several fans have compared the entire sequence of events with David Beckham’s infamous red card against Argentina back in 1998, costing England the game.
