Folarin Balogun's promising World Cup campaign suffered a significant blow on Wednesday night when the United States forward was sent off during a clash against Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Balogun received a red card early in the second half, leaving the United States to navigate one of their World Cup fixtures a player down at a critical moment in the tournament.

The dismissal marked a sharp turn for the American striker, whose performances at this World Cup had drawn widespread attention heading into the match.
