Michelle Alozie, a standout for the Super Falcons, claims that Lauren James did not contact her despite rumours to the contrary. Instead, the Chelsea and England women’s striker apologized on social media for the stamp she received at the 2023 Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
Following a VAR review for a stamp on Alozie in the 87th minute of England’s 4-2 penalty shootout victory against Nigeria in the round of 16, James was given the red card.
James apologized on her Twitter account after the game, and FIFA gave her a two-game suspension.
During the Channels TV Sports segment Alozie claimed tonight that James just expressed regret on social media on Tuesday.

No, she didn’t reach out to me; the apology was on Twitter and Instagram.”
The Houston Dash player also stated her reaction to the challenge from James was because she was on a yellow and avoided being sent off in the game.
“I think it was kind of funny how it all came about. After the game, obviously, I was really upset and wasn’t really looking at my phone. So, some of my teammates were like, ‘Michelle, you have to see this photo of you; maybe it would make you smile a little bit’ because I was kind of upset.
“My reaction was because I was on a yellow card, and I didn’t want to react so I don’t get evicted from the game. I just knew after her actions I didn’t have to do much.”
The Super Falcons did not lose any of their games in open play at the tournament despite their elimination in the round of 16.
