Announcer while Norway is beating Brazil 2-0 saying that Norway is almost as good as Brazil, is hilarious and typical of prejudgments.

Trump makes a call to his amiguito Infantino, pushing for Balogun’s red card/one-game suspension to be overturned, and voila, Balogun can play tomorrow night.
It’s just gross, and kinda makes me want to root against the U.S., even though it’s not the players’ fault and I also don’t really like Belgium.
Also, ironic he is pushing to get back a player he doesn’t think is a citizen. I guess he’s stopping the birthright citizenship fight??

這件事會是美國足球的恥辱。
而這都是因為一個人。
"Everything he touches turns to gold."
這是川普他爸吹噓兒子的話。
今天球迷把gold改成了另一個詞。
如果美國先賢們知道，有個美國總統，
會在250週年時做這件事一定會氣瘋掉。
這是明目張膽地利用權勢改變規則，破壞公平。
而且毫不掩飾地公開，完全沒有羞恥心。
決賽兩個不要臉的還要一起頒獎，
到時讓全世界看看會不會被球迷噓。
本來輸球只是技不如人，
現在因為這事美國球迷會感覺羞愧。
這件事對美國隊自己也是傷害。
而足球場上教訓對手的最佳方式，
就是把球打進對方球門。
比利時今天做到了。
Eleven U.S. cities will host World Cup games this summer, which is expected to generate $11B for FIFA.
The cities get little in return. They do not see a slice of game-day revenues from ticket sales, concessions and merchandise, or parking.
