Lionel Messi got a friendly whistle. Folarin Balogun did not and paid a massive price. The USMNT star forward received a red card Wednesday, which has been described as “insane” and “Why FIFA sucks” by fans — and those same people won’t want to see that Messi didn’t even get a card for an extremely similar play earlier in the tournament.
