FIFA has dismissed Belgium’s challenge over the eligibility of Folarin Balogun after world soccer’s governing body decided to suspend his one-game ban ahead of the World Cup round-of-16 game with the United States. Despite being dismissed against Bosnia and Herzegovina, the USMNT striker is available to face Belgium in Seattle on Monday night after an intervention involving U.S. President Donald Trump, government officials, U.S. Soccer and an extensive legal team.

I can't wait to make these fricks cry

End of the day, almost everyone agrees it wasn't worthy of a red and that the VAR system was used inappropriately.
So it's ridiculous the rest of the world is mad about the eventual outcome, however we got there.

Godamn this could’ve been handled so much fricking smoother. It’s like fifa enjoys the controversy.

/r/soccer is melting the frick down and I love it. I don't often visit reddit, but I'm always astonished by how absolutely insane those people are every time I do. I think I have a grasp on what I'm going to see and they raise the bar every single time.

The "lawyering up" by Belgium always came off as some kind of grandstanding bullshite.
Belgium had zero to do with the red card, so what was a lawyer going to argue?

"no standing" where have I heard that?

I can't decide if I want to win due to Balo scoring or win due to others scoring.
I would like to say "shut up, our other guys dominated you, not Balo", but also would be fun to drink their tears if Balo has a hat trick

Well, yeah

Not a red, never should've been. But it will undeniably be even more embarrassing if we don't pull out the Win now. Either way, we won't stop hearing about it from Euro snobs for some time.

Tim Ream header in the 76th minute to win 1-0 off a corner. Let the talk not even be on the attacking pieces but the witty vet making a play to send the US to the QF.

Yeah the Belgium football association is not covering itself in glory here.
