On July 9th local time, the FIFA Disciplinary Committee announced a punishment for England's defender Jarel Kuanca. Kuanca was shown a red card in the World Cup match between England and Mexico on July 5th, and his behavior was deemed to violate Article 14 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code, resulting in a two-match suspension. According to the FIFA announcement, Kuanca's two-game ban will be enforced in England's upcoming World Cup matches. This means he will miss England's quarter-final match, and if the team advances, he will also be absent from the semi-final.
