The #WhiteHouse [actually] made a call to #FIFA [AYFKM?] to ask Gianni #Infantino to review #FolarinBalogun’s red card….
The person did not have details to share about who specifically made the call & when.
#Trump celebrated the red card reversal shortly after it was announced, posting on his social media network “Thank you to FIFA for doing what was right, and reversing a great injustice!”
