Balogun says he thought it was “a joke” when FIFA suspended his red card after Trump call

United States forward Folarin Balogun said he thought it was “a joke” when he was told FIFA had suspended the sanction for his red card, allowing him to play in the World Cup round-of-16 match against Belgium. “Two days before the Belgium match they told me I was allowed to play again, and for me it was unreal; at first I thought it was a joke,” the player said during a conversation with basketball star LeBron James at the Fanatics Fest in New York.
