Lauren James' Ban for Violent Conduct Could Have an Impact on England's Future
Nigeria had a game plan to frustrate England and stop them from playing. But then all of a sudden with that red card, the onus was on them. I don't think they really knew how to use it. If that game had stayed 11, the 11 Nigeria would have had a better chance. However, clearly a bit of madness like you say from Lauren James. There's a big question mark about whether Deborah Abi Oden will be given three match ban for violent conduct or just one. Unlike in English football, a red card for violent conduct is not an automatic three match ban at the Women's World Cup but it's going to be reviewed by FIFA.
