🚨🗣️New: Luis Suárez reacts to Uruguay’s arrival in the United States for the World Cup, where the squad faced sniffer dogs and rigorous security checks:
“I’ve been in football a long time, and I’ve seen tournaments all over the world. But what we’re witnessing here with the USA hosting this World Cup is deeply concerning. Take the Uruguay team arriving — world-class players like Manuel Ugarte, standing there with arms folded, looking utterly bewildered as sniffer dogs go through their bags like they’re common criminals. That image says it all. These are ambassadors of the game, not suspects at the border.
This isn’t hospitality; it’s humiliation dressed up as security. You’ve got a Somali referee, one of Africa’s best, denied entry despite a valid visa — a man who dreamed of officiating at the pinnacle of his career, turned away at the airport. African and South American delegations facing extra screenings, visa chaos for fans and officials from qualified nations. This is the ‘land of the free’ rolling out the red carpet? It feels more like a fortress with razor wire.
The beautiful game deserves better than being turned into a political football or a paranoid checkpoint. FIFA chased the dollars — and there are billions to be made, no doubt — but they’ve sold the soul of the tournament to a host that treats global football stars and supporters like potential threats. Meanwhile, American taxpayers and host cities are left holding a bill running into hundreds of millions for security and logistics that FIFA largely pockets.
Football has always been about unity, passion, and bringing people together across borders. Right now, under this hosting, it’s being strangled by suspicion and overreach. The world is watching these scenes and cringing. If this continues, it risks leaving a bitter taste that lingers far longer than any on-pitch glory. We needed a celebration of the game — not a showcase of division. Something has to change.”
@FIFAWorldCup Curaçao had just scored their first ever World Cup goal and had momentum and then they stop the game for commercials (under the excuse of hydration break). Absolutely detest this. No place for this nonsense in football 😒😒😒
Presidenta @Claudiashein, apenas regresé a casa, al lugar que nunca debió convertirse en punto de partida para salir a buscar a mi hijo. Pero quiero decir algo sobre lo que dijo de nosotras ayer en la mañanera:
Le pido que no deje que las autoridades se distraigan investigando cómo le hicimos para ir a la CDMX, yo le digo:
Llegamos de la misma forma que llegamos a cada búsqueda: con los pesos contados, cansadas, con hambre, rezando y sin saber si comeremos. Pero ahí estábamos, luchando como cada día.
Ahora que lo sabe, pídale a la Fiscalía por favor, que en lugar de perder tiempo para saber cómo llegamos, se pongan a investigar cómo se fueron nuestros hijos.
I don't know who wins the World Cup but all i want is USA getting eliminated from the World Cup in the most humiliating way, preferably by a Muslim nation as well.
@lasillarota@MetroCDMX@Oti_Carvajal De todas tus inauguraciones de este mes, todas están hechas con las patas @AdrianRubalcava. Metro Auditorio, Xola, San Antonio Abad: todas con filtraciones de agua.
Todo está tan mal hecho que es evidente que sus obras no van a durar nada
@enriquemunozFM Con ese gasto enorme e inútil nomás te llevaste tu tajada @ClaraBrugadaM. Nadie pidió un puente con macetas, LITERALMENTE NADIE, y ahí sí nada de consulta ciudadana, verdad?
A la madre, Tlaloc ya se enojó de que anden exotizando nuestra cultura para agradar a los extranjeros y decidió que es hora de restablecer el lago en una noche.
