Nigeria lost to England in the round of 16 and was eliminated from the Women's FIFA World Cup.
The 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup match between Nigeria and England lived up to all the expectations.
After 120 minutes of play, it was learned that both teams had outstanding team performances that made it impossible to distinguish them.
Despite being down a woman, the Lionesses of England finally prevailed through penalties.
Following Lauren James' awful foul on Michelle Alozie in the 87th minute, England was down to ten players.
The 22-year-old attacker, who was having a great campaign will be suspended for next game.
Although Lauren was aware of the game's regulations, she went too far and did it anyhow. She should be suspended for more than simply three matches for the wicked challenge.
Alozie's spinal cord was just millimeters close from being broken by the stamp, which may have terminated her career.
In order for future players to learn from this and to ensure that Lauren James won't do such behavior again, FIFA definitely has to act and award her a very substantial punishment.
