The Trump card beats the red card. I'm Chris Foster, Fox News.

Will U.S. striker Folarin Balogun be allowed to play against Belgium after a controversial red card?

Chris Foster 0:06
Team USA plays Belgium tonight at the World Cup soccer tournament with star striker Valerian Balogun allowed to play, as of now at least. He was kicked out of the last match and suspended for this one after stepping on an opposing player's ankle. And Fox confirms President Trump asked the president of soccer's governing body, FIFA, Gianni Anfantino, to review the decision.

Balogun has scored three of America's ten goals at this World Cup and is its only player with more than one.

Did President Trump intervene to reverse the World Cup suspension and how did FIFA respond?

But after being given a controversial red card in the round of 32, the rules said he would have to sit out the next game and that there was no way to appeal it. With 30 hours until the match against Belgium, though, FIFA announced that its judicial body was suspending the ban, President Trump posting about it on Truth Social, thanking FIFA for, quote, doing what was right and reversing a great injustice.

Fox is great. The Royal Belgian Football Association now is reportedly appealing that reversal. The game in Seattle starts at 5 Pacific, 8 Eastern.

China's military has test-fired a long-range ballistic missile with a dummy warhead from a submarine into the Pacific, the first launch like it in two years.

How did the Fourth of July weekend affect movie box office results and which films led the charts?

During a recent event in New York, Marine Brigadier General Daniel Taylor said that one military fundamental is as ironclad now as it was in 1776. We exist to fight and win our country's... battles when called to do so. General Taylor added that when it comes to the armed forces as a whole, we are one team, one mission, and that is to protect the American people and guard our national interest. Navy Admiral Carl Thomas noted that in the modern world, however, our allies are invaluable and that they are essential to deterring aggression, maintaining stability, and ensuring a peaceful and prosperous future for all.
