Summary
Folarin Balogun’s red card in the U.S. Men’s National Team’s win over Bosnia-Herzegovina can’t be appealed — FIFA’s rules leave no room for review, automatically sidelining him for the next match. The incident, caught by VAR, occurred during a physical tackle that left the opponent injured and required on-field treatment. Fans and analysts are buzzing, especially since the U.S. still won, sparking debate over why soccer’s red card system doesn’t allow for post-match appeals like in other sports. The only chance for a change? FIFA’s disciplinary committee, which might upgrade the suspension — but for now, Balogun’s out, and the U.S. must adapt.
