Shock Defeat: USA Knocked Out by Belgium Amidst Explosive Balogun Controversy
A late USA flurry saw Sebastian Berhalter go close before Balogun was denied at the near post by Courtois.
But in reality Belgium had little difficulty in seeing out a fully deserved victory, with gloss to the scoreline added as Lukaku powered into the bottom-right corner after Chris Richards had lost possession in his own area.
For the USA, it marked a desperately disappointing end to a tumultuous day. The fallout from the Balogun saga will rumble on, but a USA journey at this World Cup that at one stage promised even greater things will not.
