Shock Defeat: USA Knocked Out by Belgium Amidst Explosive Balogun Controversy
The decision has prompted a furious response from the wider football world and raised questions about political interference. The Royal Belgian Football Association said it was “astonished” by the ruling, which it unsuccessfully appealed.
Despite coach Rudi Garcia leaving Kevin De Bruyne and Jeremy Doku on the bench, Belgium played like a team motivated by a sense of injustice, with USA talisman Balogun powerless as Rudi Garcia’s side dominated matters, taking the lead in the ninth minute with the first of two goals from Charles De Ketelaere.
