AGP Executive Report
Last update: 7 hours agoWorld Cup Fallout: Folarin Balogun said FIFA’s decision to let him play Belgium after his red-card ban was “controversial,” insisting he had “nothing to do with” the process, as the USMNT still crashed out 4-1 in Seattle and Belgium’s win was followed by mocking “Overturn this” and a Trump-style dance in the dressing room. Political Interference Row: FIFA and Infantino defended the disciplinary process after Donald Trump confirmed he lobbied Infantino to review the suspension; UEFA and European lawmakers backed calls for investigations, while FIFA also defended referee Raphael Claus after Trump questioned him as “suspect.” US Soccer Stagnation: Beyond the scandal, coverage keeps returning to the same theme: the US men’s team remains stuck at the round-of-16 level, with coach Mauricio Pochettino saying progress isn’t “linear” despite a promising run.
