Reece James’ sister blasted for ‘stupid’ red card in World Cup Round of 16

In the 87th minute of the Women’s World Cup Round of 16 match between England and Nigeria, Lauren James received a red card for a stomp on an opponent.
James had been one of the standout performers for the England team throughout the tournament.
Despite her sending-off, England managed to secure victory in the game through a penalty shootout.
However, due to her suspension following the red card, James will be unavailable for the team’s next two matches.
This suspension means that she might only be eligible to return for the final, should England progress.
Lauren James, who is the sister of Chelsea‘s Reece James, faced significant criticism on social media for her actions during the match, which led to her red card.
Her conduct and subsequent suspension have stirred discussions among fans and observers of the tournament.
Adelodun Ade: “That was not nice at all. Poor sportsmanship. Why did she have to do that?”
néłšøñ: “You can be talented but still be a terrible person!”
Meadows: “An African crushed by an English boot. History repeating itself.”
Torfa: That was intentional and deserved a red card. Alozie pocketed her the whole game. England struggling with the physicality of Nigerians
Matty: “She just felt good see how she’s smiling 🙄
John: “The first woman in history whose brother thought she is better than some of the PL players 😂
Wabay: “Just because she didn’t get a chance to score now she decided to apply her stupidity that way🤣🤣🤣. Shame on her. Team Nigeria 🇳🇬. Support from Kenya.”
Wilhy: “This is she kind of skill and talent her brother was blabbing about, such a cruel, inhumane and barbaric act. Imagine if this was coming from a Nigerian player. The red card is not punishable enough, this girl should be apprehended.”

Police responded to the scene, but no arrests were made, and no ambulances were needed. Rashford’s teammate and captain, Bruno Fernandes, also stopped to offer assistance.

‘It was always the plan’ – Virgil van Dijk explains Nunez penalty against LASK

Virgil van Dijk has heaped praise on Darwin Nunez for his standout performance in Liverpool’s recent Europa League match against LASK.
Nunez played a pivotal role in the match as Liverpool found themselves trailing 1-0, but Nunez’s contribution turned the tide in their favor, ultimately leading to a 3-1 victory.
Nunez’s crucial moment came in the form of a penalty kick in the second half. Just before Nunez stepped up to take the penalty, Virgil van Dijk briefly held the ball and appeared as though he might take the spot-kick himself. This momentary delay allowed Nunez to maintain his composure and focus on the task at hand.
Van Dijk also emphasized the significance of the mental aspect of these high-pressure moments in matches, highlighting the importance of maintaining one’s composure and mental fortitude when facing critical situations.
He said: “You have to make sure you protect at least the penalty spot. It’s a bit of a mind game there – maybe they were going to try and get in your head.
“It was always the plan that Darwin was going to take it, and I’m glad he scored.”
Van Dijk additionally added that Nunez is beginning to show the world what’s really going on with him:
“Darwin was very important for us against LASK and long may it continue. Up front, the competition is quite good.”
“They all have to push each other and it’s good to see. Everyone has a role to play whether you start or not. Everyone has now seen the potential and the quality he has.”

REVEALED: When Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw will be back in Man Utd squad

According to reports from ESPN, there are growing concerns within Manchester United regarding the injury timelines of Luke Shaw and Aaron Wan-Bissaka, with expectations now suggesting they may not return until at least November.
In fact, it’s a possibility that both players will only be available for the game against Everton on November 25, meaning they would be sidelined for the majority of the month.
Shaw’s last appearance for Manchester United was in their defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, after which he suffered a muscle injury and has been struggling to recover since.
Wan-Bissaka, on the other hand, sustained a hamstring injury during the match against Brighton & Hove Albion last weekend.
Manchester United has been grappling with a series of off-field issues and injuries this season, resulting in a disappointing start despite the high expectations following last season’s performance.
