The Belgians met Folarin Balogun's disqualification with a spectacular victory.

Belgium national football team player Nikolos Raskin admitted that his team perceived injustice due to the discordant FIFA decision ahead of the 1/8 final match of the World Cup. The organization issued a one-match disqualification to US national team striker Folarin Balogun, who took a straight red card in the early round.

Regardless of the fact that the star forward of the Americans was at the starting point, Belgium definitely defeated the hosts of the tournament in Seattle with a score of 4:1.

The emotions of the Belgians were felt not only when the ball was scored, but also when trolling their opponents. After the fourth goal, a number of Belgian citizens celebrated the holiday of the vorit, consecrating the so-called Trump dance (walking with stitches and waving his arms), which went viral during the 2024 US presidential campaign..

The official account of the Belgian national team on Instagram also went viral. On the page there was a photo of the attacker Romelu Lukaku, who puts his hand to his ear, with the caption: “Touch it” (at the sight of a scandalous decision).

Over the last two days, a lot has happened to the posture of the field. The team sensed injustice, and we were extremely determined to report on the field,” said the manager of the Scottish Rangers..

Belgian captain Yuri Tielemans encouraged his partner, noting that this situation had encouraged the team.

The disqualification of 25-year-old Balogun for a foul against the Bosnia and Herzegovina player was automatically reduced to 12 months. US President Donald Trump confirmed that he specifically asked FIFA President Gianni Infantino to watch this episode.

Trump said that the decision to put the graver away would deprive him of great glory in the tournament, leaving the rest without respect for the foul. Suddenly, the President of the United States said, without pressing pressure on the organization:.

" I don't believe they made a decision; I respect what the commission made. And this was the correct decision"

The head coach of the Belgian national team, Rudi Garcia, announced after the game that Balogun would go ahead with the team's training. The coach chanted the gravel, which does not particularly relate to the situation that has developed, and for the Belgian national team the main one is their power plan for the group.

The FIFA decision has raised concerns among the football world: the Royal Belgian Football Association has declared the protest and filed an appeal, as the FIFA committee defended against Belgium.

UEFA sharply criticized the situation, declaring that the disqualification handed over had crossed the line. Thomas Tuchel, the head coach of the England national team (who also lost their team in the match against Mexico), called this an unsafe precedent, setting a rhetorical theme: “How to draw a line?”? I don’t have any power on this line"

Varto note that with 189 straight red cards in the history of the World Championships, there is only one gravet before disqualification - this was the Brazilian Garrincha back in 1962, even before the promotion.
