#BREAKING: Trump calls FIFA President to demand USA v Belgium be played as a best of three series
July 7, 2026
ANOTHER CHANCE: The U.S football team’s run at the World Cup may not be over yet, despite their loss to Belgium a short time ago.
After the U.S President’s intervention to get a red card ban overturned for today’s game, he’s now again called the FIFA President to demand a rule change.
“We need to make this a best of three series,” said Trump.
“I’ve never even heard of Belgium before. Is that even really a country?”
The FIFA President tried to explain the tournament operates on single-elimination brackets, a format used in essentially every World Cup since 1930.
The President also reportedly floated a compromise under which Belgium would keep the win, but the U.S. would advance anyway “because we hosted beautifully.”
More to come.
