Trump Asked FIFA to Review U.S. Player’s Suspension. Now He’s Eligible to Play.

The reversal of Folarin Balogun’s World Cup suspension is highly unusual. It was the first time since 1962 that FIFA has nullified a suspension for a red card received during the World Cup.

Folarin Balogun will be available to play the USMNT’s round of 16 match against Belgium, with his one-game red-card ban that he received against Bosnia and Herzegovina suspended. Article 27 of FIFA’s disciplinary code states that “the judicial body may decide to fully or partially suspend the implementation of a disciplinary measure.” nyti.ms/3RkeoH5

The multiday funeral ceremony for Iran’s slain Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei beginning Saturday will serve as an act of mourning, but also as something of a victory celebration as the regime projects itself as the winner of the monthslong conflict. nbcnews.com/world/iran/iran-…

A defiant Tehran shows scars of war, but daily life continues ahead of Khamenei’s funeral

The funeral marks the first time in months that many international media crews have been allowed into Tehran, with the regime eager to project itself as the winner of the monthslong conflict.
