SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Folarin Balogun's star turn at this World Cup went sideways early in the second half Wednesday night, as the American forward was sent off — after a VAR review — for dragging his cleats down the back of Bosnia-Herzegovina defender Tarik Muharemovic's leg and onto his foot.

SANTA CLARA: Folarin Balogun scored and was sent off as the United States beat Bosnia and Herzegovina 2-0 to reach the last 16 of the World Cup on Wednesday. The co-hosts’ first World Cup knockout victory in nearly a quarter-century — and only their second ever — sets up a clash with Belgium in Seattle on Monday. Balogun’s goal on the stroke of half-time had sent the California crowd into delirium, with some 30 million Americans expected to be watching the blockbuster clash across the nation. But the striker saw red as VAR intervened following a nasty clash with Bosnia’s Tarik Muharemovic. But even with the US forced into a 10-man rearguard action, Malik Tillman curled in a free kick to secure the win. US supporters had flocked into the San Francisco Bay Area stadium in festive mood, their exuberant confidence summed up by the traditional pre-match fighter jet flyover in the bright California skies. Bosnia’s tactics were made clear from the kickoff — an immediate long ball — while the US defense quickly camped out on the halfway line, always pushing forward. Still, Bosnia had the best early chances.
