That depends upon a couple of factors.
1. What does your home state association require? Some honor red card suspensions from other states, some do not. Contact the LA office.

2. Did the referee from the game bother to fill out a USSF supplemental report form for the red card and submit it? Did the tournament director file it with the state office in charge of the tournament? If not, then there will not be a paper trail to ever get back to the home state.

3. Was the player pass kept by the tournament staff or returned to the coach/team manager following the match? That should give you a good indication. No pass = no play in most places.

4. What does the coach of the team want. Some coaches suspend their player for the next match no matter what the league/tournament/state/referee does. That is a strong stance on sporting behavior.

I hope that helps you.
