Belgium’s appeal against Balogun decision is ‘inadmissible’, says FIFA

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.
