FIFA WC: FIFA Suspends USA Forward Folarin Balogun's One-game Ban

By IANS News July 06, 2026 • 08:00 AM View: 93

The Royal Belgian Football Association: The USA's leading FIFA World Cup 2026 goalscorer Folarin Balogun will be available for selection in Tuesday's Round of 16 match against Belgium after FIFA suspended his one-game ban.

The forward was previously set to serve a one-match suspension after receiving a red card for a foul on Bosnia-Herzegovina defender Tarik Muharemovic in the Round of 32 victory.

USA Soccer said the development is a result of FIFA’s implementation of article 27 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code, in which FIFA’s judicial bodies utilised their authority to suspend the disciplinary sanction handed down to Balogun following his sending-off in the last match.
