Handed two-match suspension
Quansah received a two-match suspension from FIFA following his red card in England's World Cup victory over Mexico, according to Rob Harris from SkyNews.
Analysis: Quansah was initially expected to miss only the quarterfinal clash against Norway after being sent off for a late challenge in Sunday's 3-2 win. However, FIFA has extended the punishment to two matches, meaning the defender will also be unavailable for a potential semifinal should England advance. The suspension further complicates England's options at right-back, where injuries have already sidelined Reece James and Djed Spence during parts of the tournament. Quansah will now have to wait until a possible final to feature again at the World Cup.
Sent off in round of 16 win
Quansah was shown a straight red card during Sunday's 3-2 win over Mexico.
Analysis: Quansah was chosen at right-back due to the injuries of Reece James (hamstring) and Djed Spence, but the Leverkusen man paid a high price for his late tackle in the 54th minute, leaving England with 10 men for the remainder of the match. He's now suspended for the quarter-final clash against Norway and may return to World Cup action if his side advance to the semifinals. This issue will worsen a difficult right-back situation for the Three Lions, though Spence could be back for the upcoming match. Otherwise, Declan Rice may be deployed in the defense while Quansah serves his ban.
