FIFA overturns Flo Balogun's suspension ahead of World Cup match

The FIFA suspension of U.S. striker Folarin Balogun has been overturned just hours before the World Cup match against Belgium. This decision was made under Rule 27 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code, which allows for the suspension of disciplinary measures. The Royal Belgian Football Association cited the code's Article 66.4 regarding automatic suspensions following send-offs. The back-and-forth over Balogun's status has created uncertainty for both teams as the match approaches. With Balogun now eligible to play, teams are adjusting their strategies less than 30 hours before kickoff.
