It’s going to be very difficult not being able to play with this team next year. I’ll cherish the memories we had forever. 🏈 #Raiders https://t.co/py7zNbc0Gf

"VAR made their recommendation to the referee based on slow-motion and still replays, which is not aligned with VAR protocols."
@andydaviesref believes VAR made the incorrect decision on Folarin Balogun's red card.

FIFA sources confirm there is no mechanism to appeal a World Cup red card in their Disciplinary Code. Which seems quite surreal. But it means Balogun will not be able to play Belgium.

It’s been a while….When the USA lost 2-1 to Belgium in the Round of 16 at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Kevin De Bruyne & Romelu Lukaku both scored and Thibaut Courtois was Belgium’s keeper.
A dozen years later the U.S. will face that team and that trio again.
USA has its best chance to win a World Cup and a bogus Red Card is given to our best player to keep him out of the next game in the Round of 16? THEY DON’T WANT TO SEE US WIN AND HAVE TO CALL IT SOCCER
Iconic Tillman free kick. Favorite USA goal of my lifetime other than the Donovan/Algeria goal. Still reeling from the dubious red card on our best guy…, one team grabbed jerseys for 2 hours to stop advantages, the other team had an awkward collision somehow become a red… what?
This scene is WHY SPORTS ARE THE GREATEST.
A festival of celebration.. a gathering of humans with so many different backgrounds but one common goal.. I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT. I get goosebumps watching folks come together & have a BLAST
Also.. 66 DAYS UNTIL COLLEGE GAMEDAY
Thanks so much to @TickPick this is a bucket list game for me. Fell in love with the World Cup in 94 now 32 yrs later getting to watch USMNT in a knockout game is incredible.
Final prediction:
US: 2
Bosnia: 0
Herzegovina: 0
Pusilic goal. Tillman goal. McKennie assist
