Trump says if US loses to Belgium without Balogun, he’ll say “it was rigged, just like the election'

U.S. President Donald Trump said that if Belgium beat the US in its Monday, July 6 game without star striker Folarin Balogun on the field, he would claim the game was "rigged, just like the election was rigged in 2020."

Trump admitted asking FIFA President Gianni Infantino to review a red card issued to Balogun, defending the intervention as a bid to correct what he called a "horrible" officiating decision.
