YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

First Trump tampers with the red card ruling and now Egypt accuses FIFA of fixing matches so this leaves Tom Swarbrick wondering if FIFA is 'fit to govern' football.

Egypt has extraordinarily claimed its World Cup clash with Argentina was rigged in favour of the South American side, which came back from 2-0 down to win 3-2.

This comes as the US President admitted to telling FIFA to review a ban on US striker Folarin Balogun after their game against Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Speaking at the White House, he condemned the referee’s "suspect" decision to give Balogun a red card.
