New twist in the Balogun case! Will the US forward play against Belgium?
The situation around Folarin Balogun's suspension is getting increasingly complicated.
Details: According to information from Twitter, Folarin Balogun's participation in tonight's match is still not guaranteed.
The issue stems from the striker's red card and subsequent suspension. Reports indicate that Belgium has until 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time to file an appeal against the White House's appeal regarding Balogun's ban.
Therefore, the final decision on whether the forward will play could be made on game day itself, adding even more intrigue ahead of the opening whistle.
It is worth noting that earlier, FIFA had overturned the suspension of US forward Folarin Balogun for the playoff match against Belgium. He was shown a red card in the game against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Reminder: UEFA has issued a strong statement regarding the overturning of Balogun's suspension.
