England star Lauren James gets red card for violent conduct after egregious act vs Nigeria
, so her ejection from the match, as well as being a woman down for the rest of it, was a big blow for the Lionesses.
But it came 87 minutes into 90-minute match . This match, though, was scoreless with England being the favorite to move on to the quarterfinals. Lauren James dribbles during the FIFA Women's World Cup match against Nigeria at Brisbane Stadium on Aug. 7, 2023, in Brisbane, Australia. Nigeria was at an advantage, then, with the extra player on the pitch for overtime. They weren’t able to capitalize, however, as England fought hard to keep the score tied with penalty kicks being the decider for who moves on and who goes home.
England ended up winning, defeating Nigeria 4-2 in penalty kicks to avoid the upset. Nigeria would’ve been the first African team ever to win in the knockout stage of a Women’s World Cup. While England may be moving on, their star player is going to be suspended for her actions, as the Lionesses won’t have her available for their match with either Jamaica or Colombia in the quarterfinals.
