Folarin Balogun received a red card during the USMNT's World Cup match against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
USMNT striker Folarin Balogun was issued a straight red card after a VAR review determined his challenge on Bosnian defender Tarik Muharemovic constituted serious foul play. The incident occurred in the second half of the round-of-32 match, which the USMNT won 2-0. Balogun will serve an automatic one-match suspension, missing the upcoming game against Belgium.
