New Controversy in 2026 FIFA World Cup
One of the most important, unchangeable rules of the World Cup football tournament has changed. If a player is shown a 'red card' and sent off in a World Cup match, he cannot play in the next match. This was a final decision with no reasons, no objections, and no appeals. However, the current decision to revoke the red card shown to American team's star player Folarin Balogun in the 2026 FIFA World Cup matches raises many unanswered questions. Balogun, who was sent off with a red card in the 'Last-32' round against Bosnia-Herzegovina, is now eligible to play in the 'Last-16' round against Belgium on Monday. Balogun, who has scored three goals in this tournament, is the top scorer for the American team.
