The United States tumbled out of the World Cup on Monday, beaten emphatically by Belgium in a match overshadowed by allegations of political interference by U.S. President Donald Trump on behalf of the co-hosts.
U.S. leading goalscorer Folarin Balogun was allowed to play in the match after Trump asked the head of football’s governing body, FIFA President Gianni Infantino, to review a red-card ban on the player.
