'That wasn't foul!': Trump backs Balogun as FIFA u-turns ban; Internet reacts, 'scam of the century'

FIFA is facing massive backlash after overturning Folarin Balogun's red card suspension ahead of the United States' crucial FIFA World Cup Round of 16 clash with Belgium. The dramatic reversal came after President Donald Trump publicly revealed he had asked FIFA President Gianni Infantino to review the decision, sparking fierce debate across the football world. Trump hailed the decision as correcting a "great injustice," while Balogun insisted the challenge was accidental and deserved only a yellow card. The move has triggered outrage from Belgium, criticism of FIFA's disciplinary process, and intense reactions from fans questioning the integrity of the tournament.
