Balogun suspended for USA's last‑16 clash with Belgium

USA defeated Bosnia and Herzegovina 2-0 in the round of 32, with Balogun opening the scoring.

Balogun was shown a red card in the second half and will serve a one‑match suspension.

US Soccer confirmed the ban will see him miss the upcoming last‑16 tie against Belgium.

Balogun said, “It’s been surreal… I’ve been upset. I’ve been happy,” reflecting on the incident.

Balogun’s absence could shift USA’s over/under goals market as their attacking threat is reduced.
