Further thoughts on #FreeBalogun and the #USMNT headed into tonight's match vs Belgium.
Let's not lose the story here, people. An unjust red got overturned, and now we get to see two teams near 100% duke it out.
It's going to be a great time! ⚽️🇺🇸

This is approaching levels of parody of parody. The quotes in Jeff's article are phenomenal. We may be through the looking glass here, people. #FreeBalogun #USMNT #FIFAWorldCup

Also lost in this clown show is the irony that Belgium is angry about an atrocious VAR decision effectively being overturned when it is questionable whether they would even be in this game without the benefit of completely separate atrocious VAR decision. #USABEL #FIFAWorldCup #FreeBalogun

Among the things lost in this clown show...
1) The federal government thinking intervening in a stupid soccer game is more important than, I dunno, finding a way to quit bombing the shit out of Iran or ending the Ukraine war. 1/2

Oh wait, so a player getting sent off for an honest challenge that winds up looking bad on VAR in a tournament where half a dozen of these have been ignored seems unfair? Yes, by all means tell me more… #FreeBalogun #FreeQuansah
Yes of course his foot was high BUT is there no consideration for the fact his foot bounced off the ball? Like what’s he supposed to do?

FIFA finally does something reasonable and NOW people are up in arms. 🤦♂️
From the organization that brought us the World Cup in Qatar, the USA, and Saudi Arabia upcoming, THIS is too much?!
That said, I would’ve kept Balo suspended BECAUSE Trump cried about it.
Still, #FreeBalogun 🇺🇸

Let me be clear that the way this whole thing panned out is pretty rotten. I don't think the method for the outcome is remotely correct, fair, or reasonable. #FreeBalogun #USMNT #FIFAWorldCup #BELUSA 1/

I’m glad Trump spent whatever amount of time he did pressuring FIFA rather than brainstorming with Stephen Miller. #FreeBalogun

Coda to the #FreeBalogun #USMNT outcome: FIFA could have just said, "The red card was inconsistent with how the tournament has been officiated to that point," the main jist of every argument. That would have buried the referee crew publicly, and comp authorities never want to do that.

It would have been more on the level for FIFA to suspend Balogun’s ban as a gift to the USA for its 250th birthday. Still FIFA corruption, but at least clear.

HUGE news for the USMNT. FIFA disciplinary committee has lifted the one-game suspension on Balogun.
It’s … curious, but FIFA did something similar so Ronaldo didn’t miss any of Portugal’s games at this World Cup.

No yellow/red for flat out taking a player out with NO play on the ball. #FreeBalogun

That did not fit the definition of a red card.

#FreeBalogun - Flo Balogun's #RedCard was BS last night and we need our inaugural #FIFAPeacePrize winner to help us get Balogun back on the field for our next game!! #WorldCup #CountryRoadsTakeMeHome

IDK, could just be my OWN nerves, but the interim between Flo's (unjust) red card and Malik's goal felt tense, slow, and unsure to me. When Malik sent that beauty into the back of the net, I felt the energy level soar. #FreeBalogun
