Balogun Cleared to Play for USA vs Belgium

United States forward Folarin Balogun will be available for Monday night's round of 16 match against Belgium after his red card from the previous game was overturned. The decision came Sunday afternoon as reported by FOX Sports' Doug McIntyre and Melissa Ortiz.

Balogun received the red card in the 64th minute of the USA's 2-0 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina, where he had scored in the 45th minute. The ruling determined that the red card should never have been assessed, clearing the striker for the crucial matchup against Belgium. afrikasportnews.co.za
