@bbcsport: President Donald Trump has confirmed he asked Fifa to review United States striker Folarin Balogun's one-match suspension at the World Cup. Balogun was set to be suspended for his side's last-16 tie against Belgium on Tuesday after being shown a straight red card for a foul on Bosnia-Herzegovina defender Tarik Muharemovic in the previous round. But on Sunday, Fifa made the unprecedented decision to suspend the automatic one-game for 12 months, freeing the way for the United States forward - who has scored three goals at this summer's tournament - to be selected for the match in Seattle. #FifaWorldCup #donaldtrump #america #folarinbalogun #fifa

Bro says “I understand sports really really well” then proceeds to say “the referee gave him a red card. I didn’t know what that meant.”

Thomas#1 :

The F1 Sector :

“No way that was a foul”

NOT Time For Reform :

up_the_daggers :

"I understand sports really well" and a matter of sentences later: "I didn't know what that meant"

️toddan¹⁶ :

”I understand sports really well, really well” then ”I don’t know what a red card means”🤠🇺🇸🦅

Carlo S. :

that was a blatant red card. politicians should not get involved.

beau🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 :

‘how do you penalise them for a game that hasn’t been played yet? It’s very unfair,you can’t do that.’ Because it’s the rules of the game

Louis Knowles :

"Knows sports well" but doesn't know what a red card is.... righttt

downandout26 :

So Trump makes one phone call and a rule that has been in place for decades gets ignored for one Team. If it wasn't a red they should overturn it not suspend it for 12 months. What happens if he is sent off against Belgium? Will it be two games suspended?

we're is Trump now 4-1 Belgium
