In the wake of their embarrassing World Cup exit, angry USA soccer fans have turned their attention to President Trump following the USA’s 4-1 defeat to Belgium.
On Monday night, the World Cup co-hosts were sent crashing out of the competition after a dismal performance against their European rivals in Seattle.
Mauricio Pochettino‘s side had no answer to the Red Devils’ attacking onslaught, led by striker Charles De Ketelaere – who scored twice and set up another on the night.
To add to their misery, the USA’s players and fans could only sit and watch while their Belgian counterparts openly mocked Trump during their on-field celebrations.
However, while some USA fans were incensed over Belgium’s Trump teasing, other supporters actually joined the pile on with vicious comments on social media.
Those fans pointed to Trump’s controversial involvement in the build-up to the game, having called up FIFA President Gianni Infantino to ask for a further review to the one-game ban which was handed to striker Folarin Balogun in their previous game.
