USA vs. Belgium score, World Cup live updates: Folarin Balogun to play Monday after red card fiasco

Men’s National Team is back in action Monday night, taking on Belgium in the Round of 16 at Lumen Field in Seattle.

When they do so, they’ll have starter Folarin Balogun available — a pleasant surprise for fans after he’d earned himself a red card in last week’s win over Bosnia and Herzegovina, which, per FIFA’s World Cup rules, is automatically accompanied by a one-game suspension.

However, in a stunning turn of events, FIFA announced he’d be available for the U.S. team’s match against Belgium on Sunday, suspending his one-game suspension for a probationary period of one year.

After winning Group G, Belgium was nearly upset in the Round of 32 after Senegal took a two-goal lead in the second half.

Belgium ended up scoring goals in the 86th and 89th minutes, forcing the game to extra time before scoring the go-ahead point on a penalty in stoppage time of the second extra-time period to advance.
