Belgium takes on the United States later today for a spot in the quarterfinals.
The Belgian federation (RBFA) said it has still not received either "FIFA's decision or any explanation regarding this matter. In these circumstances, it has no choice but to challenge the player's eligibility for the upcoming match."
