  1. So many americans have no bottom line. For benefits, people just overlook rules. That's why the us is so bad today. You deserve your lose of the game and respect from other countries.👏👏👏

  2. Americans are, by and large, m0rons, imo. Of course, Trump should not have gotten involved regardless of whether the call was bad or not. If anything, the US team should have been disqualified for Trump's involvement.

  3. It stunns me how someone thinks it's okay for the president of the US to get involved, he's a politician, not a football player. I would never feel good about a win if our prime minister did something like that for us. Just shame. It's supposed to be fair and you're supposed to respect the judges decision. What he did, ruined their reputation. As always. I wish for a better leader for you, as soon as possible, America. Love from Norway. 🇳🇴

  4. Interesting range. The first three got it right. One guy knows it’s wrong but doesn’t care. The last guy is a populist or he agrees.

    The guy who knows it’s wrong and doesn’t care, is the one you keep an eye on.

  5. Trump cheated all his life. Infantino must resign and if not UEFA must split from FIFA. Same for other football associations. What next other goverments start calling up favors. Thanks to the Belgian players.

  6. Do they really think 1 red card overturned could help them win the match? 😂😂

    It's cheating and that is illegal.. besides point, even with USA playing 15 players wouldn't help them win againts Belgium anyway

  7. The last guy is exactly why the US is in a mess. With ppl like him n his thinking .. no wonder the US is not moving forward but always moving backwards more n more even after each time they take a step forward. One step forward but always few steps back.

  8. So glad to hear that the majority of people had the view that Trump’s overreach was out of line. It was clear that Trump had intervened, not the American people. FIFA came up with a fake peace prize for Trump to placate him. Why would this situation be any different than that.
    Belgium has celebrated the US’s contribution to winning WW2 including helping free Belgium. Every year the towns where the Battle of the Bulge celebrate the US’s winning that battle without much assistance from the other Allied Forces. They have made folks from the US feel welcome in multiple ways. Thanks, Belgium for the hospitality I experienced when visiting your country. Sorry our president did something that was out of line.

  9. Well it was obvious the last person being interviewed has no clue about the rules and how corruption works, 90% of people could have been upset, unhappy with the decision and FIFA wouldn’t have done a thing, they wouldn’t have even looked at the incident, so that’s how much people power means, you only have to look at what’s happening in America, Trump and his administration are corrupt, Trump has failed at everything, and extorted as much as possible, and will continue until there is an election, but the point being, that he thinks that the people made the difference, I wonder if he ever listens or if he’s a Trump supporter! 😱🤦‍♂️🤬💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

  10. And the Belgium team, looking on watching Infantino, trump and possibly the team, colluding to do what? Hopefully knock Belgium OUT.
    I think all this made their team look on and say, how deep does this effort to knock us out go? Is the Referee safe? They had no choice but to play pedal to the metal and ram goals past the USA in case the ref awards the USA a miracle game winning penalty chance in the 87th minute. Cape Verde go home with a billion admirers at least. The USA crash out being labelled as CHEATS.
