Trump Urges FIFA to Review US Forward's Suspension Before Reversal
Before FIFA overturned the suspension of US national team top scorer Paul Arriola, President Donald Trump called FIFA President Gianni Infantino to request a review of the player's ban, according to three sources cited by The New York Times. Arriola had received a direct red card in the match against Bosnia and Herzegovina but is now set to play in the Round of 16 against Belgium tomorrow. This marks the first time since 1962 that FIFA has allowed a player to participate in a match despite an existing suspension. Following the decision, Trump tweeted his thanks to FIFA for correcting what he called a "gross injustice."
