President Trump called FIFA President Gianni Infantino to discuss the red card given to Team USA’s Folarin Balogun during Wednesday night’s game against Bosnia and Herzegovina, an person familiar with the conversation told The Hill. Trump later cheered the reversal, calling it an “injustice.”

FIFA said its independent panel overturned the red card suspension for Monday’s game.

      I will excitedly open up a nice Belgian beer, regardless of the results of the match. It’s just a solid decision.

      Might I suggest an ABT 12 or Pavel Kwak?

        Wise choice to have a beer ready. I had my “Victoria” (Victory) Caguama (32 fl oz) beer ready to go for the game against England. Had to get some masking tape and a sharpie to turn it into a “Derrota” (Loss), but it was still delicious. The salty tears elevated the flavor I think.
