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.

    It may as well be a mafia organization. I don’t know what keeps continental federations from building a new FIFA replacement other than further corruption. Maybe the expansion to 48 teams and the unprecedented rescinding of Balogun’s suspension will finally be the guillotine that cut the camel in half.
