The FIFA has suspended the one-day suspension imposed on U.S. attacker Folarin Balogun, who was sent off during the round of 16 match against Bosnia. This decision came after a call from former President Donald Trump to FIFA president Gianni Infantino. Balogun, a key player for the U.S. team, was initially set to miss the upcoming quarterfinal match against Belgium due to the red card. However, FIFA decided to apply Article 27 of its disciplinary code, allowing for a conditional suspension. The ruling means Balogun will remain available for the crucial game, which could significantly impact the U.S. team’s performance. The decision has been welcomed by Trump, while Belgian media have expressed frustration over the potential advantage this might give the U.S.

The upcoming match between the United States and Belgium in the World Cup quarterfinals has become controversial due to FIFA's unusual decision to suspend the red card received by American player Folarin Balogun during a previous game against Bosnia and Herzegovina. The suspension was based on Article 27 of FIFA's disciplinary code, which allows for probation instead of immediate sanctions. This decision sparked speculation about potential influence from U.S. President Donald Trump, who praised FIFA for correcting what he called a serious injustice. The Belgian Football Association threatened legal action to ensure fairness in the tournament. Similar cases include the 1962 World Cup, where Brazilian player Garrincha was expelled but not suspended, and a recent leniency shown to Cristiano Ronaldo. The U.S. team, led by manager Mauricio Pochettino, now has Balogun available for the match, which could determine their progress in the tournament.

Folarin Balogun, the U.S. men’s national team forward, was suspended for one year after being sent off with a red card in the previous round of the World Cup for a 'step on foot' foul against Bosnia and Herzegovina. However, the FIFA disciplinary committee has suspended this sanction under Article 27 of the Disciplinary Code, allowing him to return immediately for the upcoming match against Belgium. This decision surprised many, especially after U.S. fans had called on President Donald Trump to intervene. Trump praised FIFA for correcting what he described as a 'grave injustice.' The move has sparked reactions across media outlets, with some expressing surprise at the timing and others questioning whether such a suspension could have been applied in this case.

Folarin Balogun, un attaquant américain qui a reçu un carton rouge et a été expulsé lors de la victoire de l'équipe américaine sur la Bosnie en huitièmes de finale de la Coupe du Monde, a été suspendu par la FIFA. Cependant, cette sanction est conditionnelle et suspendue pour une période d'essai d'un an, permettant effectivement à Balogun de participer au prochain match de quart de finale contre la Belgique à Seattle.
