He only needs 106 votes from FIFA members to get re-elected. And he has 111 from South America, Asia and Africa due to funneling of money into their organisations. The only way anything happens is if UEFA walks away. In the meantime he'll today up to Trump, fix things so that Saudi Arabia can host a World Cup and organise more and more stupid summer club tournaments and nothing happens.

Just in: Trump reports that Belgium are 2 weeks away from developing a nuclear weapon!

You are aware of the club team you support, right?

Hopefully that result really puts the American public appetite off football for a while so we don't have to put up with so much nonsense to appease them.

No doubt phone calls are being made to suspend Belguim's 4 goals for a year. USA back in, Trump happy again.

So pleased to see Belgium stuffed USA. Was largely indifferent before Infantino interfered. Whilst having no problem with many of the female pundits and co-comms Robyn Cowen’s voice is just too high pitched for me

Farage unravelling. Glorious. Thin-skinned, chicken-shit, corrupt prick.

Says the Southampton fan... Honestly though, we bought a striker that couldn't get into that team... fml.

Looking like at least a couple of these Belgian goals will need to be suspended by Fifa in order for the States to progress from this one.

Excellent - USA getting Trumps just desserts. Hope it ends up an even more emphatic win just to prove cheats don’t prosper.

Horror show for that 3rd goal from the US.

hehe 3-1

I’ve reminded myself of my thoughts that JWP was a ‘luxury’ player for us in our latter days in the Prem - great for free kicks on goal, but not really utilised in a manner that allowed a quick transition of the ball forward and not a player that could put in a crunching tackle to break up opposition play. Don’t think I’ve changed my position on that, so I’m of a mind to say no thanks.

2-1, slightly better than the last game lol

Belgium one up. Good.

Yes, I was waiting for someone to bring that up. You don't mention how well we did in previous shootouts under his charge, in stark contrast the the pathetic ones prior to him. Also being 100% prepared doesn't guarantee 100% success, otherwise if you meet another well-prepared team it would go to 100 or more successful penalties each.

Age is always the great leveller, isn't it. Messi perhaps the exception.

Parasite

I agree his caution held us back in that final, but that doesn't mean his contribution should be written off in the way some do, or that his achievements in reaching 2 major finals should be belittled. If it is so damn easy to do what he did, how come England have only ever reached 3 finals and 2 of them were under Southgate? I personally think he didn't have as many truly elite world class players at his disposal than a lot of his predecessors had, so I think his legacy in addition to those finals has been instilling a togetherness and team ethic back into England that wasn't present previously and a belief that we can get to Finals and potentially win tournaments. The current England squad is still benefiting from that legacy to some extent in my opinion.

If they want to bring along an older player to add experience in the dressing room, just add one of them to the coaching staff. Job done.

It’s amazing isn’t it? Little Southampton FC cheat in the EFL and get the book thrown at them. The President of the US cheats for his national team in front of the whole world and FIFA bend over backwards to help him.

Was Spains best defender tonight. Everytime it went to him, he slowed down the play, stopped any momentum they had going forward and then lost the ball the majority of the time.

Sycophantino is so far up Trump,s ass I'm surprised he's got enough room to write this.

Good job JWP isn’t in the England WC squad otherwise Infantino would have been on the phone to Nuno and had JWP frozen out of the competition.

I think Southgate deserves a fair amount of credit for his time as England boss. However, his legacy is tainted by the fact that he did screw up that final against Italy. Once Shaw got the early goal we should have smelt blood and gone after them. They had two aging centre backs and Southgate wasn't ruthless - sadly his nature is caution but he should have thrown that to the wind and had he done so I'm convinced we'd have won comfortably.
