General Discussion

England's Jarell Quansah was sent off for a straight red card Sunday night for a tackle on Jesús Gallardo in the Three Lions' 3-2 win. Like Balogun's red card, Quansah wasn't called for a foul on the field, but the video replay officials called referee Alireza Faghani to the pitch side monitors. After a quick look at the replays, Faghani gave Quansah a red card.

Monday, Labour MP Noah Law wrote a public letter to Infantino asking for Quansah's one-match ban to be reviewed and directly cited the Balogun situation.

"Whilst I believe that it was right for Jarell Quansah to have received this red card and that refereeing rules must be applied consistently, I believe it would be right to delay his suspension until after the completion of the World Cup," the letter said.

"We know that a similar situation arose earlier in the competition when United States forward Folarin Balogun received a red card during the Round of 32."
