Former President Donald Trump recently spoke with FIFA president Johnny Infantino about a controversial red card given to a player during a soccer game. Trump stated that he did not think the play was a foul and asked for a review of the decision.
Trump expressed his opinion that the referee’s call was ‘horrible’ and that the player did not deserve the red card. He also mentioned that he had spoken to Infantino, who is highly respected, and that the FIFA president had told him that the numbers for the current World Cup are four times greater than expected.
Trump’s request for a review of the red card decision was not made as a demand, but rather as a suggestion. He stated that he did not think it was fair to penalize a player for a game that had not yet been played.
