USA World Cup star Folarin Balogun is now available to play against Belgium in the Round of 16 match, a significant development following a red card suspension. FIFA has suspended the sanction for a probationary period of one year, effectively clearing the striker for the crucial game.
Balogun received the red card previously, which would have made him unavailable for the knockout stage. However, the successful appeal means he can now feature in the team's lineup against Belgium. This decision provides a major boost to the U.S. Men's National Team as they enter the critical phase of the tournament.
