World Cup: FIFA Rules Belgium’s Appeal Against Balogun Decision Is ‘Inadmissible’

 

FIFA said on Monday that the appeal by Belgium’s football assocation against the World Cup reprieve for US striker Folarin Balogun was “inadmissible”.

“The FIFA Appeal Committee has rendered a request submitted by the Royal Belgian Football Association (RBFA) as inadmissible in relation to the FIFA Disciplinary Committee’s decision to suspend for one year the match suspension imposed on United States national-team player Folarin Balogun,” FIFA said in a statement.

Belgium, who had earlier appealed the decision, are scheduled meet co-hosts USA in a round of 16 match on July 7.
