FIFA slams UEFA hypocrisy on Balogun red card

Published July 7, 2026 · Updated July 7, 2026 · The Guardian

FIFA has hit back at UEFA over the lifting of striker Folarin Balogun's suspension, accusing the governing body of hypocrisy regarding red card overturns.

In a statement ahead of the USA's match against Belgium, FIFA Chair Mohammad Al Kamali argued that overturning red cards is a standard disciplinary measure in Uefa-affiliated leagues. He questioned why this practice had never previously raised concerns about crossing a 'red line' before Uefa criticized the decision to reinstate Balogun. truewildslot.com
