America didn’t just lose a World Cup match. We lost credibility. A President personally intervened with FIFA over a disciplinary decision and created the appearance that political power could influence the rules of the game. The reputational cost was far greater than the sporting cost.

This is an important point that it seems like a lot of people don't fully grasp. We don't impose *legal* penalties until something is proved to appropriate standards in a court case. But we don't need legal findings to make judgements like "I don't trust him" and vote for someone else.

Fabulous first half—one of the best of the entire World Cup, imo. What is not so fabulous? Mexico fans with their homophobic “Puto” chant every time England take a goal kick. FIFA continues to choose to look the other way, ignoring its own stated anti-discrimination principles. More FIFA corruption.
