    Women’s World Cup a few days ago.

    English forward Lauren James and Nigerian defender Michelle Alozie. In the 87th minute, James pushed an already down Alozie and then stomped on Alozie’s back. James was initially given a yellow card before VAR stepped in and issued a red card, which disqualified her from the match.

      Good to know there were consequences. Thanks!

      Also, Alozie’s “WTF?” expression is priceless. What a great photo.
