Folarin Balogun shined in the US team's match against Paraguay

Folarin Balogun (24 years old) had an excellent performance on Friday night in the match between the US team and Paraguay. His first goal was ruled out for offside, but he later scored two more goals in the match. Balogun has no plans for a big celebration after this victory.

Balogun opened the scoring after half an hour thanks to an assist from Christian Pulisic, and in first-half stoppage time he scored the second goal. After a quick dribble, the AS Monaco striker skillfully put the ball into the top corner of the goal. After the match, Balogun was awarded 'Player of the Match'. "This was a great day," Balogun said after the match. "I'm happy to get the three points. This is my first World Cup. To score two goals from the start is amazing. The fans are amazing, we need them throughout this tournament."

When asked if he would celebrate the achievement, Balogun said: "Not really. Maybe I'll just watch a little Netflix." US team coach Mauricio Pochettino was also very pleased with the team's performance. "The first half was really great. It's hard to find a team that plays this well. I'm very happy and proud. The support from the fans is amazing. We've been waiting for this for a long time. The whole world now realizes that football here is huge."
