Folarin Balogun will play for the United States against Belgium in their round of 16 match after FIFA suspended his one-game red card ban.

• Folarin Balogun, the USMNT's leading scorer with three goals, was previously suspended due to a red card.
• The decision was reportedly influenced by President Donald Trump and other White House officials contacting FIFA President Gianni Infantino.
• The red card itself was considered controversial by experts, and FIFA cited "Article 27 FDC" for the probationary suspension.
• The Royal Belgian Football Association has expressed strong disagreement with FIFA's decision.
