Video allegedly shows Egypt fans getting extra checks and pat-downs at Mercedes-Benz Stadium… while Argentina fans walk through freely, now accusations of unfair treatment are exploding online.

A stadium official was caught on video admitting that ONLY EGYPTIAN fans were being SEARCHED and patted down before entering Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium, while Argentinian fans were allowed in without checks.

This is RACIAL DISCRIMINATION, Egyptians were singled out for… pic.twitter.com/0jYAro4SpY

He couldn't help himself and put his chubby thumb on the scale, called the head of FIFA and got a red card lifted. This will taint the U.S. national team's run in the World Cup going forward. Will the team's hard work be celebrated or will this World Cup be remembered for US presidential interference?

---

As a non-TDS afflicted soccer fan, I am glad our president made the call asking for the red card to be reviewed. The card should never have been called based on slow mo and still images that made the incident look way worse than it was, which is illegal VAR procedure by FIFA rules. Hopefully, others can also look past their bias and see the facts for what they are.

FYI - Governments have been strictly prohibited from directly interfering with FIFA on things like referee decisions, with penalties being dished out to soccer federations whose government interfered.

AI Overview

Under FIFA Statutes, national governments are strictly prohibited from directly interfering in the internal operations, elections, or disciplinary decisions of football associations. Member states that violate this rule face immediate penalties, including bans on national teams and club participation in all international competitions. [1, 2]

Enforcement of the Rule
FIFA requires all member associations to manage their affairs independently and without political influence (Articles 2(2) and 15(c)). If a government dissolves a federation board, attempts a hostile takeover, or overrides refereeing decisions, FIFA regularly steps in to suspend the offending country. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Nations that have historically faced World Cup or international bans due to political meddling include: [1]

• Nepal (Suspended over government interference in the football federation)
• Pakistan and Chad (Banned for government interference and hostile takeovers)
• Mali (Suspended after its sports minister dissolved the executive committee of the national federation)
• Kenya (Suspended by FIFA when the government dissolved the football federation board)
• Kuwait, Indonesia, Iraq, and Nigeria (All previously sanctioned for government attempts to control or dissolve their football associations) [1, 2, 3, 4]

Recent Controversies
While FIFA enforces these guidelines globally, the strictness of the rule occasionally sparks controversy. High-profile interventionssuch as when the White House directly lobbied FIFA to suspend an automatic red-card ban for U.S. striker Folarin Balogunhave led to accusations of political favoritism and inconsistency in how FIFA applies its disciplinary rules. [1, 2, 3, 4]

---

It was a decision made by an 18 person board. Not Trump. Who cares, let's beat Belgium.

---

Since Belgium is being a scared, whiny *** about this, let's rename Belgian Waffles to Freedom Waffles!

---

I've always felt that I want my teams to play and beat the best version of the other team, not a water downed or injured version. Never understand people complaining about things like this

---

BALCO, Barry Bonds, and Steroids. Putting your thumb on the scale is putting your thumb on the scales. No athlete who believes in fairness and his own ability would be proud of this. This is a stain on U.S. Soccer when it didn't need to be.

---

It's really not. Nothing against the rules happened. Move on.

---

Did you ever compete in sports at the college or pro level? You want to compete based on your own skill and not because a politician or administrator decided to put his thumb on the scales. That is the difference.

---

Yep and as I said earlier, I'd always want to face the other team's best players. You're making it seem like somehow Belgium has to play at a disadvantage, they don't. I'm done going on about this, it's over to me.

---

It's not about Belgium it is about the U.S. National Team and what Col. Bone Spur did. He pissed off the Belgium team, gave them bulletin board material and the results and the celebrations speak for themselves. The great thing is he will never get a chance to do this again.

---

Belgium didn't need bulletin board material to show up for the World Cup. It had zero impact on the outcome of the game, we were smoked and outclassed.

---

I'm going to say this if you don't think that what Col. Bone Spur did gave Belgium a kick in the ass to beat and embarrass the U.S. National team then just look at Belgium's celebrations and the comment sections of various Sporting publications around the world, they speak volumes. He didn't just interfere, he stole the joy away from the U.S. National Soccer Team, and instead of the team being celebrated for their accomplishments, the world and fans here will remember what Col.Bone Spur did.

---

I would have done the Trump dance too, it's funny lol. The team could have shown up and played better, that would have been helpful. Off the field stuff is great for the arm chair goalies, it's matters zero once you get on the field. I can't even believe you are still going on about this. It's over, we sucked and lost all on our own.

---

I thought you said you were done discussing this matter a few post ago but, here you are posting about it yet again. Perhaps the team would have played better if not for presidential Interference. I competed in soccer and ran track after high school and you don't give your opponent bulletin board material so they can get fired up. One has to wonder with the Olympics coming in 2028, if Col. Bone Spur won't insert himself into the various competitions like he did this World Cup. My guess is he won't be able to control himself and will attempt to bully the Olympic officials because he is such a narcissist and such a broken human being. I will be waiting to see if he can prove me wrong.

---

As stated, I've said all I'm gonna say on the topic. Who will you blame life's woes on once Trump isn't president anymore?

---

The next guy in office who-profits to the tune of $2.2 billion dollars, the guy who makes it all about himself as evidenced by putting his name and picture on a a building that represents justice, the guy who gets us into a needless wars when he promised he wouldn't, the guy who sexually assaults women, the guy who attempts to put his name on a building that is a memorial and named for a President of the United States w ho was assassinated, the guy who spends billions on a needless war while cutting food and healthcare for his own constituents, the guy who chooses fealty over competence, and the guy who doesn't values alliances. That's is who I will blame for life''s woes if I see that guy that is POTUS

---

This is a soccer thread, take your outrage to one of the 30,000 Trump threads.

---

Trump inserted himself into the WC in a highly controversial polemic that ended up backfiring on the USMNT.

I was speaking earlier today to a Belgian customer, owner of a startup, who was not into soccer but tuned in for the game. This whole Trump interference with FIFA was huge not just in Belgium but in Europe.

It didn't backfire. We played like trash. Please stop blaming the outcome on Trump, it's delusional.

No, it was huge with people who already suffer from TDS. That's not only a US affliction.
