🚨JUST IN: A brushfire has broken out near the Swiss national team’s training camp in San Diego
Their hotel is located in the yellow “evacuation warning level 2”
Somali referee Omar Artan, who was set to be the first from his country to officiate at the World Cup finals, has been denied entry to the United States.
🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: During Guatemala vs. Ecuador, a Guatemala fan ran onto the pitch... U.S. police used a lot of force to detain him, with several officers taking him down to the ground aggressively.
Moisés Caicedo stepped in and tried to protect the fan. He then complained and argued with the police over the violent way they handled the situation.
This is clear discrimination and political interference in sport. No team should be made to compete under conditions no other country would ever accept.
FIFA has a lot to answer for.
The incompetent @FIFAWorldCup host, USA, is failing to fulfill its responsibilities properly.
We are guests of @FIFAcom, and it is FIFA’s responsibility to ensure that visas for all members are issued.
