U.S. men's national team star striker Folarin Balogun will not be available for the World Cup round of 16 game vs. Belgium after getting a red card in the win over Bosnia and Herzegovina, a U.S. Soccer spokesman confirmed. Balogun, who scored in that 2-0 win, was sent off in the 64th minute of the second half by referee Rafael Claus after stepping on Bosnia and Herzegovina player Tarik Muharemović's ankle. A player who receives a red card is automatically dismissed for the rest of that match and must sit out the subsequent match.
