‘Crossed red line’: UEFA blasts FIFA over Balogun suspension after Trump intervention

 UEFA has slammed FIFA’s decision to allow US forward Folarin Balogun to play against Belgium despite a red card, calling it “incomprehensible” and a “red line” crossed. Balogun’s one-game ban was surprisingly suspended by FIFA, a move that has drawn outrage from Belgium and criticism from UEFA for undermining the “integrity” of the competition. UEFA has slammed FIFA’s decision to allow US forward Folarin Balogun to play against Belgium despite a red card, calling it “incomprehensible” and a “red line” crossed.
