Belgium contests FIFA ban appeal
Belgium announced that it will challenge FIFA's decision to allow American forward Folarin Balogun to participate in the World Cup despite receiving a red card in the previous match, unless the reasons for the exemption from suspension are clarified. This came ahead of Belgium's match against the United States in the round of 16, where the Belgian Football Association confirmed that it had not received an explanation from FIFA, prompting them to pursue the challenge. The decision sparked widespread criticism from the European Union and FIFA, following intervention by U.S. President Donald Trump.
