Sent off vs. Mexico
Sithole was sent off in Thursday's World Cup opener against Mexico.
ANALYSIS
Sithole had a very unfortunate game in this World Cup opener. Aside from losing the ball in the sequence that led to Mexico's first goal, he tripped Brian Gutierrez, who was marching clean on goal, so he was sent off. Sithole will miss the June 18 match against Czech Republic but should be available for selection for the group-stage finale against South Korea on Wednesday, June 24, as long as his ban is just one game.
