Don’t most of his goals get overturned because he was offsides?

More like Trump sent a text message that was only a picture of Infantino’s house.

It was a real red card.

They just make up rules as they go now. Challenge flags and timeouts coming soon.

Also, this guy isn't American lol (refer back to Sentence 2)

There is plenty of precedent of fifa making similar decisions historically.

It shouldn’t have been a real red as the infield ref didn’t so much as warn him. VAR can’t just go through all contact on the field in all motion looking for still frames.

Exactly. Two things can be true:

It was a bullshite red card

Fifa will do whatever they want as long as their pockets are taken care of.

Thing is I can 100% Trump influenced FIFA here because it's FIFA at the same time I also can 100% believe that he had no influence and Trump is taking the credit for something he had no hand in

Regardless doesn't matter because Flo is actually back and that's all that matters

Did Trump get Ronaldo's 3 game suspension initially delayed for the qualifying rounds that magically has yet to kick in too?

As it always should have been based on the improper use of VAR.


Absolutely this!

Had it been called on the field, I would have had no issue with the red card.
