Tillman, Balogun and a red card: a night that reset the USMNT's World Cup mood
A 2-1 win over Bosnia and Herzegovina put the United States into the World Cup knockout rounds, but the night belonged to a bloodied sock, a controversial red card, and a debate about what kind of team this is becoming.

Desk note: Monexus led on the Balogun red-card rule explainer rather than the match result, because the rule is the durable story and the scoreboard is not. The wire led on the win; the more useful service to a reader is to tell them what happens next.
