Gianni Infantino never expected Donald Trump and the USA to take credit for the suspension of Folarin Balogun’s red card. That’s where they messed up, because the USA is always about taking credit!
Power is the most important thing to them, and they don’t understand the culture and rules of football. They don’t!
Infantino seriously underestimated how power hungry the USA is. He seriously played himself!
This isn’t about the red card being suspended for the USA. It’s about them saying, “We can control FIFA,” just like they brag about controlling the world.
This is why politics has no place in football.
The appeals just keep coming:
France have appealed to FIFA to request Michael Olise’s yellow card against Paraguay is rescinded.
Increasingly feels like FIFA have lost control of their World Cup here.

Madame Celeste Amarilla,
Vous êtes une femme méprisable et indigne de sa fonction.
Vous ne représentez pas le Paraguay, ce pays qui a transpiré la passion et l’honneur tout au long de la compétition. Par votre inconscience et votre racisme décomplexé, le monde entier a déjà oublié le parcours et l’effort historique que vos joueurs ont réalisés durant cette coupe du monde pour laisser place à une dame incompétente donnant la pire image possible de son pays.
Je ne laisserai jamais aux gens comme elle, la liberté de laisser propager leur haine et leur racisme à travers le monde.
blame it on his mentality, lifestyle or whatever but he got the most brutal ending possible for the caliber of player he was. the amount of talent he had. 1 CL title, no indivdual awards, no international title. it doesnt get worse.
Trump on Balogun:
Balogun is our best player. He got a red card. I didn't know what that meant, but then I heard that it means you cannot play in the next game.
That's very unfair. How do you penalize him for a game that hasn't been played yet?
I asked for a review by FIFA.
If Saka gets one more assist he’ll have the most at a single World Cup of any England player ever.
He’s played only 180 minutes and is badly injured.
Madness.
@MooreRMCF A half fit blindfolded cripple injured sick dying Saka will still be England's best winger 🤣. Whether they admit it or not will forever torment them
