President Trump called FIFA President Gianni Infantino to discuss the red card given to Team USA’s Folarin Balogun during Wednesday night’s game against Bosnia and Herzegovina, an person familiar with the conversation told The Hill. Trump later cheered the reversal, calling it an “injustice.”
FIFA said its independent panel overturned the red card suspension for Monday’s game.
It’s unbelievable how much stupider the US seems now VS ten years ago, and it already seemed kinda stupid, but it also seemed very capable. The only country that’s fallen harder is Putin’s dry gas station.
He will call Infantino about those four unfair goals against the American team, too.
Yet again, everything he touches turns to absolute dogshit.
how the fuck did this piece of shit become a billionaire when everything turns to fucking shit? Boggles the mind.
Well to be honest, because we made laws to make it so. If he had been born a plank of wood, and never spoke, walked, or did anything. He would be a billionaire today. We made bankruptcy laws to make sure the rich couldn’t become poor by accident. Set bankruptcy at 10% of ones net worth, and every billionaire would fight it. Say you can sell a company was worth 1.4 billion, you can declare bankruptcy and it will cost pennies comparatively. The people who lose their houses are struggling, the companies don’t lose anything but a oops.
Because half of Trump voters still think his family did not gain wealth from his presidencies.
When your voting base is this ignorant, corruption and deregulation festers, feeding into the ignorance/corruption cycle ad nauseum.
Corruption is spelled FIFA.
He probably doesn’t even watch the soccer. We should really start handing out “Playing Victim” cards to trump every time he whines
He admitted that he didn’t know exactly what a red card meant. Even worse, he thought it was unfair that you could be penalized for a game that hadn’t happened yet.
lol… We don’t even watch much soccer in Australia, and even the biggest dumbass knows what a red card is
I was at the Club World Cup Final outside NYC last year. Don’t Cheeto was there making a scene with Mr FIFA. I’m pretty sure that was the first soccer game he had ever been to. I’m guessing he didn’t attend any of his kids’ games before molesting them.
and, as expected, trumps meddling cost them
Well fuck. I was pulling for USA but with this special treatment I’m not sure I can anymore.
So once again the world proves yet again whatever Trump touches turns to shit as the US loses 4 to fucking 1.
He’s gonna ask for a recount and accuse math of being communism
As if the peace prize wasn’t bad enough, they now need to bring their corruption to the game itself.
If this doesn’t alienate all member organisations, I don’t know what will. They should pull the plug and start a new international federation with better accountability.
So annoying. Government should not give a fuck about games.
Worse, the people who should care, the sports fans, just keep throwing their money at fifa.
We are all fucked. Corporate sports and government grift, and people cant stop watching and/or don’t care.

Bad calls are part of every sport. It happens. Rules are rules, and if the there is no official instant replay or challenge procedure then the call stands. Rules are fucking rules.
This is no longer about a bad call. It’s about integrity.
Ah yes… FIFA, a paragon of integrity.
Do you all hear yourselves? FIFA Article 27 exists exclusively to not have this so-called integrity you all are concerned about.

You can keep playing, but as punishment you have to have dinner with the presidents (USA & FIFA).
