Balogun Ban Suspended for US v Belgium

Fifa has suspended the one-game ban on US striker Folarin Balogun, making him available for the crucial last-16 match against Belgium.

President Donald Trump thanked Fifa after the governing body announced that Balogun would be available for the host nation's knockout clash. The decision gives the US a significant boost as they aim to reach the World Cup quarter-finals for the first time since 2002.

Balogun was shown a red card in the last-32 match, but the Fifa disciplinary committee cited an article of the Fifa code to suspend the ban. The Belgium FA expressed astonishment at the decision. The US striker has been a constant threat in the tournament, scoring three goals in three starts. fish-roadgame.online
