by Silverbird News24

England forward Lauren James has apologised for her red card during the Women’s World Cup last-16 win over Nigeria and says she will learn from the experience.

She was sent off following a VAR review for stamping on Michelle Alozie’s back in a tie England won on penalties.

James will be suspended for Saturday’s quarter-final against Colombia.

The 21-year-old was one of the stars of England’s group games, with three goals and three assists.

Nigeria’s Alozie, who plays for Houston Dash in the US, had posted: “We are playing on the world’s stage.
