Incredible Egyptian goal is disallowed because of a foul far away, then same situation a few minutes later and goal for Argentina not disallowed! No VAR, nothing? FIFA again looks like a corrupt joke, playing favorites for stars.
🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: The Royal Belgian Football Association has released a statement in regard to Folarin Balogun being able to play against them.
"The Royal Belgian Football Association (RBFA) is astonished by FIFA's decision to declare suspended United States player Folarin Balogun eligible to play in the USA–Belgium match on Monday, 6 July at 5:00 p.m. (Seattle time)."
"FIFA bases its decision on Article 27 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code. This provision states that the FIFA Disciplinary Committee may decide to suspend the enforcement of a previously imposed disciplinary sanction."
"However, Article 66.4 of the same FIFA Disciplinary Code clearly provides that a red card (sending-off) automatically results in a suspension for the team's next match, as has been the case for all previous red cards issued during this FIFA World Cup."
"Furthermore, and irrespective of the above, the decision is in direct contradiction with the provisions of the FIFA World Cup 2026 Competition Regulations, as set out in Article 10.5:
"If a player or team official is sent off as a result of a direct or indirect red card (second caution), they will automatically be suspended from their team's subsequent match. In addition, further sanctions may be imposed."
"The automatic nature of such a suspension was also explicitly reaffirmed in FIFA World Cup 2026 Circular No. 16, which was distributed to all participating member associations on 12 May 2026."
"The same rule is reiterated at every FIFA World Cup 2026 Match Coordination Meeting prior to each match and is included in all FIFA World Cup 2026 workshop presentations.
"In order to safeguard the legitimate rights of all participating teams and to protect the fundamental principles of fair play in our sport, both at this FIFA World Cup and at future editions of the tournament, the RBFA is investigating all potential options."

Everyone who has stood on a Greek island in August has thought the same thing. I could live here.
You couldn't. Not that island, not the way it was that day.
The island you fall for in August is a different place in February. Half the tavernas shut, the fast ferry cancelled three days running, the nearest real hospital a helicopter ride away.
I'm Italian, and Greece has been my second country for years, summer and winter. So I asked the only question that matters if you want to move and not just visit: which Greek islands are real towns all year round?
8 islands where you can actually live all year. Work, raise kids, retire, and not feel trapped when the boats stop.
Parents always ask me one thing first: can any of them school the kids in English? That answer surprised me too.

YOUR PARENTS ARE GETTING OLDER:
They won't tell you this, but they miss you terribly.
Here's what to do while you still can:
1. Start calling them more often.
El derrame cerebral a menudo llega de repente… pero la verdad es que el cuerpo envía 5 señales antes, aproximadamente 20 días antes, pero la mayoría de la gente las ignora

1. Dolor de cabeza🧵
Mi esposa llevaba cinco años muerta, pero cada mes seguía enviándole 600 dólares a su madre. Creía que estaba ayudando a una viuda anciana en un pueblo costero. Entonces el banco me informó que había un problema con la cuenta...
