Trump Confirms He Asked Fifa to Review Balogun Ban Fifa's decision to suspend United States striker Folarin Balogun's one match suspension at the World Cup has sparked a crisis of integrity in international football.
The controversy centers on a phone call from President Donald Trump to Fifa president Gianni Infantino, which led to a review of the original decision.
