Team USA's top scorer, Balogun, received a red card in the game against Bosnia. Which means he would be suspended in the next game.
President Trump called FIFA boss Infantino. Now FIFA states without further explanation that the suspension is lifted, and Balogun can play in the upcoming game against Belgium. Following that, Trump publicly thanked FIFA for that decision.
If that would have happened 2018 in Russia, Putin interfering with the world cup, the explosion of the med…

But it’s getting harder and harder to separate the game from the people who run it, and Infantino is running the game—and enjoyment of it—into the ground.
