France plans to request cancellation of Olise's yellow card, says newspaper

Following the case involving Balogun, who had his automatic suspension lifted by FIFA this Sunday (5), the French Federation plans to request the annulment of Olise's yellow card.

The number 11 was warned in the 51st minute of the 2nd half in a heated discussion involving Galarza. The federation argues that Olise did not touch the Paraguayan. The information is from L'Equipe.

The card leaves the France player hanging for the round of 16 of the World Cup. If he receives a card against Morocco, next Thursday (9), and France qualifies for the semis.
