Embolo red-carded for diving after VAR review

Switzerland forward Breel Embolo was sent off in the second half of a World Cup quarterfinal against Argentina on Saturday after a VAR review determined he had dived to win a foul. Embolo, who had already received a yellow card earlier in the match, was given a second yellow and consequently a red card, leaving Switzerland with 10 men at 1-1. Argentina went on to win 3-1 in extra time, with the Swiss coaching staff and players expressing fury at the VAR decision.
