Folarin Balogun, a forward for the USA, had his mandatory one-game World Cup suspension overturned by FIFA. The suspension originally stemmed from a red card Balogun received during a last-32 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina, which should have sidelined him for the subsequent match against Belgium.
The decision to lift the ban followed a request from U.S. President Donald Trump. FIFA stepped in and suspended the ban, clearing Balogun to play.
This intervention has sparked a reaction from the Norwegian Football Federation. The president of the NFF stated she will ask her board to pursue a formal ethics complaint with FIFA's ethics committee regarding the overturning of the suspension.
