++Sky News++ captured his words, as he explained: “”Yes, I asked for a review by FIFA. I spoke to a man [Infantino] who is highly respected. I’m the one who got them to do it, not Biden. Biden was asleep.”

Conspiracy time.
Because of the 250 years of independence, the final will be rigged to be USA/England and the USA will win controversially.
Then trump will keep the trophy
Will one of Starmer’s last acts as PM be to try and get Quansah’s red card overturned?
No, because he has some honor.
does he ? when did this happen ?
I’m already suspicious the USA have got as far as they have, yes Norway are ranked two places below, but Haaland is far far better than anyone the US can field. Chances are given the USA would have had plenty of Lantino countries in their qualifying group, they’re only chance of getting into the World Cup was automatic due to hosting it. I don’t know, maybe I’m being to harsh. Still it is utterly unbelievable that FIFA have reversed this.
Holy shit. As an American seeing the marketing and advertising for the world cup is sick. It’s so cringy… I feel bad for all the authentic people that love the sport.
I wouldn’t doubt if there’s some business going on with FIFA on large corrupt scale though… American football is losing its pull of American culture… They needed a new sport to help them create submissive people.
It’s about to get soulless like Hollywood and marketed pop music. …and the Americans will froth over it like hungry zombies.
American football is losing popularity and we’re trying to replace it with soccer? lol jesus fucking christ
I appreciate you calling me by my full name.
And here’s me, loving that our sports are becoming international. The WBC this year was fucking awesome to watch imo, and I think it’s cool that American football is expanding in other parts of the world. We can only imagine what an eventual “World Football Championship” would be like.
I agree it’s cool on the surface… But you know it’s going to lose authenticity exponentially.
That’s why I feel for the people who are genuine about it. It’s a double edged sword that probably won’t care about the genuine people.
It’s like every authentic thing America touches starts to oxidize, and rust.
I don’t agree with that. Imo professional sports lost its authenticity years ago when they started letting advertisers and sponsors dictate the games.
I don’t think the US needs a new sport, most of the country is either brain dead from American Football, Basketball, NASCAR, Baseball. Basically anything the USA has invetend for themselves and every other country couldn’t give a shit about.
I wouldn’t exactly throw baseball on that list. it’s plenty popular in plenty of countries outside the US.
Yeah most people in the US don’t give a shit about soccer, so I don’t get why you’d bother rigging it or other manipulation. Other than just because you are Trump and you just rug and grift and do shadey shit for no reason other than to do it.
They need to create new reason the human centipede reason to exist! Via the illusion of change and novelty.
france will lend a player to the americans, who then goes on to score the winner in extra time.
At the end of the match, they will reveal the top scorer on french team had gotten honorary citizenship just before, so his goals will count towards usa. Fifa will protest at first, but then taco will call fifa boss again…
Maradona had the hand of god, this will be the boot of liberty, the elbow of freedom or something else utterly wank
I hate that this doesn’t sound as astoundingly stupid as it should thanks to the current state of affairs.
I’m saving this, just in case… maybe you got a career as psychic ahead of you.
If the US team managed to win, I would be fucking astounded. The team’s made the top 4 exactly once when they got 3rd place in 1930. 96 whole years without placing. I know the US doesn’t care about the sport much, but still shocked me a bit when I learned that.
The US will be losing and then some French players will help from the sidelines.
And then everyone will clap
Way to ruin the next season of Ted Lasso…
/s
Tbh I’ve kind of suspected this might be the outcome.
I was thinking the same thing
God, how fucking stupid would it be if this turns out to happen?
